A few things, the most important being the ability to use dependencies that 
only support 1.6 (e.g. jersey). Even in previous versions released with jdk 1.5 
support, some component did not work with jdk 1.5. That complicated our testing 
and packaging as well, and required extra time and effort to test on both 
platforms. Not quite trivial and the benefit didn't seem significant enough to 
justify it.
