I can't comment on the roadmap question... however I can answer part of your question. The suggested way of running OSGi on Java 7 is to just run it! There is no runtime incompatibility with Felix or other OSGi framework on Java 7.
The issue you have highlighted is to do with compiling using the javac compiler from Java 7.
