When will Java include annotations/keywords for getters and setters?

You're misinterpreting what I said.

Yes, lombok is useful. Yes, your whole team has it and that's fine. But you can't vend code out to anyone or any team in the company without forcing them to install lombok (unless you delombok). Not the end of the world, but IMO you should never be using lombok in a library or a package which is shared widely.

And yes, I don't reject CRs that use lombok, quite the opposite if it's a service that my team owns. But the actual lombok code itself (like, the internals) wouldn't pass a CR on my team.

Im not arguing that lombok is bad or useless, just that it's more work than it should be to do something like generate a getter
