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.
