I am neither for or against. I created the PR so the OP could host discussion 
or start voting separate from mechanics of implementation.

> if java.time is the recommended way to proceed forward when dealing with 
> dates,
> java.time.* should be included automatically similar to how java.util.Date is 
> currently available without import. 
> The preferred approach would be to make it a global import which would be in 
> line with existing Groovy handling of java.util.Date
>  
> The least invasive  approach would be to make the import only apply if 
> groovy-datetime module has been added.
>  
> implementation "org.apache.groovy:groovy-datetime"
>  
> should automatically import java.time.* to all classes
>  
> This provides an easier migration path from Date -> DateTIme
