--------------------------------------

[~paulk] [~sunlan] Are you aware of any recent JDK16+ test case that has not been added to Groovy 3?

> The new {{$getLookup()}} method was discussed somewhat in the comments of GROOVY-10273.  Groovy 3 has had JEP 396 (illegal access enforcement) support backported to the invoke dynamic pathways, without {{$getLookup}}.  So, I'd like to restart the discussion to find out if there are any illegal-access scenarios that Groovy 4 supports that don't have a test case in Groovy 3.  And if there are no scenarios that remain, I'd like to propose the removal of {{$getLookup}} method generation.
> I have disabled its generation in the Groovy 5 codebase, and there are no tests that fail.  So I have good confidence that it can be removed and the security hole can be plugged.
