I am de-facto the maintainer of macosx.MacOSXPlugin -- see also
https://sourceforge.net/p/jedit/plugin-patches/186

Here I have overlooked the dynamic access to
com.apple.eawt.FullScreenUtilities -- it still needs to be sorted out.


Such warnings by Java 11 refer to internal things that will no longer be
accessible in the near future -- Oracle started to robustify this with
Java 9, and will become serious about it eventually. We need to
eliminate such illegal accesses one-by-one, as they occur at run-time.
Just today I've made a change in a different corner:

There are more fine-points about OpenJDK 11 that are still to be
discovered and sorted out. Only recently, I have noticed that the
derived italic versions of the IsabelleText font don't work -- the
current plan is to use fontforge to make a proper font instead.
