I really don't think its appropriate to push javadoc changes into an

a really, really compelling reason that I don't see here.
That is certainly true if they represent a specification change, but
there is no semantic change here this is a simple clarification.
That would just rule it out completely. But we don't even regenerate
javadoc for
the update releases and we have never randomly backported doc comments, for
no obvious reason. So my reasoning and position stands.

A reminder: Update releases aren't a free-for-all. You need to exercise
judgement in what
has to go in and what is the case for it. We are up to 7u10 now. We need
to be dialling
back the rate of change and focusing on JDK 8.
