In case of a respin we would definitely
include that fix.

Fw: Xtext is broken in Oxygen 1a

While we're on the subject of respinning RC2, JDT has
a critical bug[1] that prevents any project with multiple output folders
(Maven, Gradle) from running any class (be it main or test) from the IDE,
with Java 9.
A simple fix[2] was committed yesterday in master, I strongly
believe this should be backported to Oxygen.1a, given that, most likely,
all new greenfield Java 9 projects will use a build tool affected by that
bug.

While the "practical me" would say "Yes, if JDT team feels
comfortable
with that", I'm leaning towards -1 for this one because it practically
means treating internals as API thus encouraging people to use them
directly instead of working close with projects they depend on to make
APIs stronger and more feature full.
I would +1 a case where the method is bringed back in Oxygen only for
the sake of preserving some compatibility.
