That would be nice, but if it's only released in 2015, that means adoption
will only really begin in 2016-2017 (as it has to be adopted not only by
applications, but also by libraries, servers and IDEs). In 5 years, the
landscape might have changed enough to make Jigsaw unnecessary.

It's also kind of depressing that it would take nearly a decade to roll out
something that's supposed to make the platform easier to evolve.
