Hi Jiri, I don't think it's a bad idea - in fact, I would like to have some way to enforce this distro-wide. But it's definitely too late for fedora 33 in my opinion. The submission deadline for Self-Contained F33 Changes is today, and I would argue that changing the way that ~600 packages are built might not be considered self-contained :) And if we really want to do this (enforce javac -source / target versions and allow for macros to override them), it would be good to have support for this in both maven and ant-based projects. For maven, xmvn would be an easy place to put this (something like it was there in old xmvn versions), but I'm not sure about ant (since build targets in build.xml files are named differently in every upstream project I looked at).
