How to execute a javascript with jshell?

Question

Given that Java 9 is upon us and we can finally have a java REPL with jshell I was hoping there was a way to add a shebang to a script and have jshell

Inspired by steiny answer, I came up with a more generic solution

In essence: jshell-wrapper will strip the first line of the script (which is supposed to be the shebang) and will add a /exit at the end of the script
