[jsr-335-eg] Default method survey results

[Ulf Zibis]

+1

To me, this new concept is additionally something like "introducing *implementation level multiple 
inheritance* in Java through the back door".
IMO this should be approached straight forward via abstract Class concept. See my details, posted at 
lambda-spec-observers list on 2012-10-21.
Simple Interface extension is manageable w/o fallback implementation as it has happend in java.sql 
package.
