No strong feeling one way or another from me. When we began requiring
2.361.x or newer, there was a strong technical reason; namely, it was
prohibitively difficult to support Java 11 as a first-class citizen in
the toolchain alongside Java 8. There is no similar technical
justification in this case, since the relevant changes to bring the
2.375.x BOM line up to feature parity with the 2.387.x BOM line with
regard to the plugin parent POM and test harness (i.e., the HtmlUnit
migration) could be backported if desired. So the question comes down
to whether we feel the benefit justifies the cost. If I were doing
this work myself, I would try to retain support for 2.375.x since
there is some minor inconvenience in dropping support for 2.375.x and
since I think the cost of backporting is relatively low. But since I
believe the people doing the work should make the decisions, it is not
up to me.
