Tilmann Zäschke commented on JDO-751:
-------------------------------------
The argument or supporting {{orElse()}} would be that these are probably the 3
basic {{Optional}} operations and that it would complement JDOQL's other
conditional statement:{{if}} (I though there was {{x==y?a:b}} as well, but I
can't find it now). But we should only add features that will actually be used,
do we have any information how much that is used?
> Support for Java8 Optional

> java.util.Optional provides a feature that is available in other languages.
> Since JDO 3.2 will be for Java8+ then it makes sense to add support for this
> as a "supported persistable type"
