Comment:

 It would be great, if the functionality in `readDescriptorFiles` could be
 broken down into
 smaller and testable units.  I know that there are other places like this
 in the code, but
 we should rather work toward nicer code with new additions like this. (and
 then apply this
 to improve the legacy code)

 There are some checkstyle warnings about unused imports and javadoc.

 Should the parts concerning #16225 be mentioned there for reference?
