> I'd be in favour of this being merged and just dropping Java 8 support
In this cas, probably a MAJOR release will be required.

Supporting recent JDK versions and removing use of deprecated code doesn't mean Java 8 support is lost.
It's possible to keep code compilable with Java 8, and usable with recent versions of Java.

We're not going to drop Java 8 any time soon. It is in very wide use.

Maybe not. Looks like we don't get ElementTraveral until Java 11:

I'd be in favour of this being merged and just dropping Java 8 support. Users of old JDKs already have releases that they can use.
Whilst I don't like breaking compatibility for the sake of it, hanging on to JDK 8 support isn't that important, it's eol was 6 years ago. Supporting JDK 11 and above is probably more than most need. I'd also argue that supporting the latest LTS should be seen as more important that supporting a JDK over 10 years old.

Indeed. Many are getting extended support until December 2030 and it would not surprise me if it got further extended.
