I think that's a pretty reasonable argument for just moving to 1.6 and be done with it. How many of those that are stuck with Java 5 would actually ever upgrade to the latest (and at the moment, still unreleased) versions of Tapestry? Now that must be a very low number. If you were that progressive that you'd use T5.3, there's still plenty of lifespan left in that branch. Everybody starting with Tapestry now would almost certainly be on 1.6 or 1.7.
