Ah, but that is totally fine then. It's actually the same scenario with
Eclipse: The base Eclipse platform (and most official Eclipse plugins -
that is, the plugins released by eclipse.org) are made to run in JVM 6.
But if you write a plugin that requires JVM 7, then you must run Eclipse
with a JVM 7, naturally. (BTW, that's the case with DDT)
If you guys are writing an Intellij plugin for D, requiring the user to
run it in a JVM 7 is perfectly reasonable. Even JVM 8 is trivial to
install. There is not point in making your (the plugin developer's) life
harder when installing a JVM 7 is trivial, in any OS.
