After further evaluation of the new jdk.includeInExceptions security property originally introduced in JDK-8204233 [1] and further generalized in JDK-8207846 [2], I felt that a stronger warning should be added to the description of the property alerting the user to the potential risks of setting the property. I also added a test to ensure that the property was not accidentally turned on by default (mainly to catch accidental pushes where the property was left on as part of testing, etc).

webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~mullan/webrevs/8208691/webrev.00/ I think it would simpler and read a bit better to just say "Use caution before ...", meaning drop "NOTE" and "extra". The rest of the text is okay. The additional test looks okay too.
