Does this problem still happen with Java 9?

[naoliv]

It's still possible to see it:

This line, for example begins with imagery.entries=[{name=Esri World Imagery, id=EsriWorldImagery, type=tms, url=https://{switch(…)

Java:

openjdk version "9.0.1"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 9.0.1+11-Debian-1)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.1+11-Debian-1, mixed mode)

@naoliv: do you still see this problem?
