No. We won't. The JDK RNG is fine for pretty much everything we do. I agree that we should use a better generator for production use, but for deterministic tests, there isn't an issue.
And frankly, I try to use algorithms are robust about the generator they use. Some applications are really good at exposing flaws and some are fine with anything better than ROT-13(n++). I think that all we have are the latter kind so far.
