Awesome! Thanks. I don't know much about the path from idea to standardized feature with the JVM. Is there hope for it in Java 9 or is this much farther out in the future? Probably first and more importantly, what is the chance for this even ever happening?
Well, I don't have a problem with that, but it's not really relevant. The community liked one proposal and disliked the other, but it still took almost two decades to handle the one it liked.
