no actual review just a comment : should we wait until after the release (with such a large change, even though seeming trivial) ?

I'd also like to take the opportunity to move the new imports to the "right" place, if only for consistency with all the other changes we already made.

Let me have a look at this later this week.

Using...

for i in $(grep -rl "Objects.requireNonNull" .) ; do num=$(grep "import static" $i | wc -l) ; [ $num -gt 1 ] && (grep "import static" $i > x1 ; sort x1 > x2 ; cmp -s x1 x2 ||  ( diff -u x1 x2 | (grep -q "+import static java.util.Objects.requireNonNull") && (echo ; echo $num; echo ; echo $i ; echo ; diff -u x1 x2 ))) ; done

I identified files where the static imports now needed some reshuffling.

Note that while doing this, I also found a case where the "new" import was already present, so we got a warning about duplicate imports.
