Should the boot JDK's source and target level be updated to 14 as well, so that the interim javac can use JDK 14 features? Or is that automatic?

I can still see -source 13 here:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/07156dd25b0ac468681b33181516bab34bb0c93d/make/autoconf/boot-jdk.m4#L348

That should really be getting the value from a variable, and not have it hard-coded, yes. It's been an ongoing project trying to get the number of changes when upgrading version number down to a minimum. This one has clearly been missed.
