Paul Merlin commented on ZEST-120:
----------------------------------

Added unit test demonstrating actual behaviour in 
64d6d81ce945434d908e1614ce05bc2c935e089f

That is, bootstrap fails because the composites do not implement the offending 
methods.

Some aspects of default methods:

- they are part of an interface contract
- they can be overridden by child interfaces
- they can be implemented by child classes / mixins

I think we should have first class support for default methods, controlling 
their invocation stack.

> The introduction of default methods in Java 8 has impact on Zest. 
>   * What semantics should we assign to it?
>   * How does the compiler deal with it?
>   * Do we need to intercept the call, to ensure the invocation stack is 
> called?
