I'm for breaking backwards compatilbility :
JavaPackage getPackage()
And staying with Java 1.4 for now.
Only a tiny subset of users will notice the change in signature. And
they'll be able to quickly fix their code instead of throwing their
toys out of the pram/cot :-)

Ì don't really like the idea of implementing the CharSequence.
getPackage() returns a String and I guess most of the referring code
will use a String variable.
And it's not making the code really clearer.
There are actually two issues:
- The parser fails if a package contains annotations
- The Model doesn't support annotations on the model.
If we really, really, Really want to stay backwards compatible we
should at least solve the first issue.
The second issue will (almost) always break backwards compatibility.
Pushing it to a 2.0-release sounds more acceptable then resolving it
with a 1.8+ release.
And maybe there are more things to pick up with a 2.0-release. For
example upgrading to java5 to use generic-Lists instead of arrays in
the qdox-code?
