Oracle might want to offer a survey tool (rather than a SurveyMonkey) which analyzes a codebase (or even optionally tallies dynamic usage).

The reports could in a standard format, and reviewed by respondents before submission - letting the respondent add comments or elide sensitive info.

This could catch a lot more usage – including deep-hidden in third-party libraries or old code.

They have a tool for you to use. It is called jdeps.

So you will have Java 8 timeframe to make your code behave nicely.
