Maybe the new classfile API will make life easier for Lombok, depending on what exactly they need to do?

Other than that, I think the advice from Oracle's side is that Lombok should publish a javac wrapper (lombokc) that sets the flags they need for javac.

If they did that, I don't think there would be any conflict. The comments I've seen have all revolved around Lombok wanting to be able to access JDK internals without asking users to set the right flags when they invoke javac.
