Just an FYI, but I'm working on updating that jetty patch for the
current 2.4.0 release. The one that is there won't cleanly apply
because so much has changed since it was posted. I'll post a new patch
when it's done.

Let's speak less abstractly, are there particular features or new
dependencies that you would like to contribute (or see contributed) that
require using the Java 1.7 APIs? Breaking compat in v2 or rolling a v3
release are both non-trivial, not something I suspect we'd want to do just
because it would be, for example, nicer to have a newer version of Jetty.
Oddly enough, rolling the web framework is something I'd like to see in a
v3. the shuffle may be off jetty, but webhdfs isn't. Moving up also lets is
reliably switch to servlet API v3
But.. I think we may be able to increment Jetty more without going to
java7, see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-9650 .
