Just to be clear, I'm not arguing for 1.5+ support. For a desktop utility like Chainsaw, I'd be fine if we stated 1.6+, or even some more recent build of it, e.g., 1.6.0_10+. Either way, it should be stated and whatever is chosen should be used to build chainsaw to ensure that it compiles and runs with that version at a minimum.
I would consider 1.5+ support more strongly if chainsaw were a server-side application where the appserver might dictate the JVM used. As a client-side app, users have more control over the JVM to use. I would only bother with 1.5 if users insist on it or you really think there are no compelling reasons not to support it, at least for the first release.
