As I said earlier, I think the change to build with C++17 needs motivation, 
probably in the form of proposed changes
to the style guide to describe new features whose use is permitted (or 
forbidden!) in HotSpot.  There is also
non-HotSpot C++ code in the JDK, and buy-in from the relevant teams will also 
be needed for that, or decide to
limit the scope of the change.  (I'm not really a fan of that, but mentioning 
it as an option.)
