Would this be fine?
/**
 * Create a default classfile reader, able to expose the internal representation
of a given classfile
 * according to the decoding flag used to initialize the reader.
 * Answer null if the uri is invalid or doesn't correspond to a .class file.
 * 
 * The decoding flags are described in IClassFileReader.
 * 
 * @param uri the given uri that refers to the corresponding IClassfile
 * @param decodingFlag the flag used to decode the class file reader.
 * @return a default classfile reader
 * 
 * @see IClassFileReader

public static IClassFileReader createDefaultClassFileReader(URI, int)

Would it be fine to pass a java.io.InputStream instead of an URI?

Using an input stream seems to be a more general approach. I will update the
title accordingly.
Fixed and released in HEAD.
Regression test added in
org.eclipse.jdt.core.tests.compiler.regression.ClassFileReaderTest.test083.

There is no new API for the one that refers to a zip file entry.
