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

I have started working on the easy cases. This is targeting 3.0 but complete migration isn't (currently) planned until 4.0. I'll collect questions that need further discussion on the mailing list in this issue and forward to mailing list when ready.

> This is the list of changes which need to be made to avoid split packages. As a separate issue, we should outline what compiler (or other) changes might be made that would allow (some of) these changes to occur without breaking source compatibility. Possibilities include:
>  * a separate tool to add/change imports
>  * some mechanism to define additional default imports per module
>  * automatic renaming by the compiler from old to new package names (enabled by a switch)
>  * add deprecated delegates for existing classes which point to the new versions
>  * some classloading trick to rename packages on the fly when loaded (will Java9+ allow this?)
