Browsing through the June ML archives, I found this:

"I can reveal that we've got quite a few new things already developed
internally that are only waiting for merge into the SableVM mainline
(JVMDI/JDWP support, *finalization*, phantom/weak/soft references, and
others, not to mention pending release of SableVM SDK).  I am sure
you'll like them, and we'll be all eagerly waiting to see them used in
next SNAP releases :)"

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

I understand that finalization is bad, I think your justification below makes
sense, and I don't particularly need finalizers for what I'm doing.  

Nevertheless, I would appreciate better communication here.  Is there really
support for finalization in some internal branch of SableVM?
