First of all, great notes on Clang integration, this really makes great sence.

I just wanna add some thoughts about this, since Java plugin still isn't 
actively supported, that it is a great oppotunity to rewrite it from scratch  
reusing javac sources in the same fashion, using tools like GIWS. It will get 
full java support up to Java 8 for free (current plugin sources stuck at Java 
6).
