While I wouldn't want to discourage you from migrating, I assume you're aware that you can get builds of OpenJDK 8 from AdoptOpenJDK, Azui, etc.? They're easy to embed with the RCP, and (at least in AdoptOpenJDK's case) intended to be supported for longer than 11. Given that you'd have to switch to OpenJDK to get a free Java 11 LTS anyway, I personally don't find the "leaving official support" in itself a compelling reason to migrate. Java 10 would be a worse choice than 8 or 11 too, since AFAIK no-one is supporting that now?!
