I agree, that this is unfortunate and should be fixed. But doesn’t that only affect users, who have installed Java 8 plus the Eclipse-support *and* are using an environment for Java 8 but have the compiler set to something below 8?
Is that something many people do? If so they will likely run into many other problems, as they now program against Java 8 JDK which has a lot of cool new classes and members that won’t be available as soon as they run the code on a Java7 VM or compile it against a Java 7 JDK. So IMHO this is not a stopper for having a more prominent download for the Java 8 support.
