I'm eager to start using Java 8 too, but I think we should wait until we have Java 8 committed (behind a flag) before having the discussion about whether to require it for anything. As we've found with incremental compile, sometimes we end up changing direction a bit to reach our goal, so there's not much point in having policy discussions before the mechanism is there.
