      Description

      Several alternatives exist for how information about sealing can be revealed through the java.lang.Class API. These include other names for the "permittedSubclasses" method to better capture that direct subclasses and direct subinterfaces are allowed and using an immutable list rather than an array as the aggregate in the return type.
