Would this be the internal Unsafe or sun.misc.Unsafe? I just wonder if 
this is something that would be regretted in the future.

For the original issue then maybe we should look again at providing a 
way to invoke a default method from a proxy's invocation handler. Peter 
Levart had a reasonable proposal on that. It would of course require a 
lot of security eyes to make sure that it is bullet proof.
