Description

Kotlin support has grown organically both in Spring Framework and other Spring portfolio projects, the set of features required portfolio wide is now pretty stabilized but there is a lack of reuse with related maintainability challenges.

For example, the logic Kotlin logic in InvocableHandlerMethod is involved, duplicated on WebFlux side, and required on Spring Boot side for features like configuration property binding to a Kotlin value class as described in https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/41693.

Spring Data has a also lot of Kotlin related infrastructure that could be shared as well.
