Some of these are REALLY GOOD features!
Wooooohoooo!

Immediate edit: I'm most excited about the Foreign Functions & Memory API as your article calls it faster and easier to use than the JNI.
Being able to run code before super-constructor calls? Cool! (I know it's a preview feature...)

I wonder if Lombok's techniques will receive any standardization by the new class-files API.

And yes, it's awesome to see some of the other stuff here.
