6 years ago Hmm... currently I have got no Java 9 projects which I have to build. I am aware about the module/jigsaw situation and problematic builds.
As mentinoned in https://github.com/gradle-guides/building-java-9-modules/blob/master/contents/index.adoc the gradle team will adress the problem inside the origin plugins.
Maybe there could be dedicated project-wizard templates to provide improved Java9-Support. But at the moment I am extremely busy and will have no time to provide this. As you can see I did not write much changes for egradle in the last time. At least I was working a lot at bash-editor... But I will try to start writing code for EGradle in next time.
But I think I will not be able to provide a good solution here because lacking enough free time.
If you like you could create some working setup and create a template - it's very easy to implement and was designed to be customized by other developers - see https://rawgit.com/de-jcup/egradle/master/egradle-plugin-main/html/user_guide/new_project_wizard.html#custom_templates
You could contribute your template so it would be inside next release...

Not sure if this project can help or is it related, but it turns out, that as of now Jan, 19th 2018, it is not trivial to build Java 9 project that is using new Java module system
