Hi Vladimir, Could we consider introducing Java 8 in immediate next version for this feature ? This would also allow to introduce the Renderer based on Java 8 Web browser in this version.
Initially it was delayed to N+2 version but it's maybe an opportunity to move faster to java 8. What are the risks of moving to Java8(without immediately using all the syntactic sugar ) ?
