If anyone else has an opinion on what the behavior of virtual=true should be when running on Java SE 17, please comment in

The options being considered are:

1. It’s an error because Java SE 17 can’t possibly ever honor your request to use virtual threads.
2. Ignore your request for a virtual thread on Java SE 17 and use a platform thread instead. 

Would it be possible to provide a warning of some kind both at compile time and runtime for Option 2?

I’ll leave this open for several more days, but I’d like to get a decision made one way or the other so that we can make progress on supporting Java SE 17 which is now being required by the Jakarta platform.
