Hi Steve, Sorry for disapearing for a bit, but I would like to get back to this thread. I guess there might be some miscommunication from my side about what I would like to introduce into my extension and what I would like to contribute to Hibernate ORM directly.
So to sum up I've continued working on my little project: https://github.com/jmnarloch/hstreams - and made the first public release. So if anyone wish to use Hibernate with Java 8 he is free to go. I've basically added everything that we had talk about: that is Optional query results, operating on Streams of query results, typed queries. I had noticed that Hibernate 5 will additionally add support for JDK 8 dates API, so I'm planning to reuse that. What more the extension can be already used with Hibernate 4.3.x and unless you decide to move to Java 8 I can release another version that will be compatible with Hibernate 5 . Now I'm aware that this would be short living sub project till the moment the Hibernate will migrate to Java 8, but untill that I can work on it. Also If you decide to migrate finally to latest Java version, I would be happy to prepare some pull requests based on the ideas I had already implemented in this side project.
