Not yet. Though it will likely take some time.

Well, first and foremost upgrade ECJ to a version that supports Java 7. 
Hopefully that would be enough to support the diamond operator, and 
possibly all other Java 7 features. "Switch on strings" would hwoever 
greatly benefit from a specific handling in GWT, to compile it to an 
equivalent switch in JS.
