Does this mean that the interop tool actually has partial support for JVM bindings?
Looks like this code is as old as cinterop was introduced, it seems to remained an internal thing for a long while. Additional user discussions: https://old.reddit.com/r/Kotlin/comments/gs42vh/kotlinnative_to_avoid_jni/fs3rk5x/

It would be nice if, when my code in in the same project, there was some annotation like JNI(KClass) that would recognize the name Java expects for a JNI method and set the String for me.
Especially since I prefer to use JNI in static classes so the names are always something like com_example_modulename_JniBridge_Companion0012 or something like that. It would be nice to just put an annotation like JNI(JniBridge::class)
