Description
(It feels awkward to ask this question here, but it is a follow-up of [ this suggestion over at rules_oci ](https://github.com/bazel-contrib/rules_oci/issues/416#issuecomment-1832829593))
As the maintainers have decided that the rules_oci repository should remain language agnostic, it is quite unclear where to go with questions for language-specific containers, so following @alexeagle 's advice I am trying over here.
I would like to migrate from rules_docker to rules_oci, but the functionality to package depsets into separate layers has not been provided by the new rules ([_jar_app_layer_impl](https://github.com/bazelbuild/rules_docker/blob/8e70c6bcb584a15a8fd061ea489b933c0ff344ca/java/image.bzl#L178-L212) ).
Would it be possible to provide similar functionality in a `.defs` file in this repository, and could someone help me out in porting it?
