What is the appropriate venue for a very small JDK8 proposal that includes complete patches to javac, JDK, and JLS?

Yes, the formal procedure for this category of change is now to submit a 
JEP [1].

JEPs have already been published for various language-related changes 
planned for JDK 8:

     JEP 104: Annotations on Java Types (JSR 308) 
http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/104
     JEP 118: Access to Parameter Names at Runtime 
http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/118
     JEP 120: Repeating Annotations http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/120
     JEP 126: Lambda Expressions and Virtual Extension Methods 
http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/126

Cheers,

-Joe
