That means that I should still be able to compile BEAST with g++-5.4.0 on Ubuntu16.04, right? If so, I'd say if it makes your implementation easier, go ahead and use C++14. IMHO we should bump our C++ language flavour every now and then, as supporting old compilers is just more work, and now you have a reason to do it, it seems like a good point in time to require C++14.
