Or value types, which would remove some of the need for native code(yes yes, I know it's coming in Java 10 which means we'll see it in 2030 or so).

  C++ devs are still waiting for concepts and modules as well. Waiting for features is not unique to Java.

    Really? I'm certainly not waiting for those. If I'm using C++ it's to go wide across platforms or for performance and none of those help me much in that area.

It is planned for Java 10. I bet Java 10 is probably going to be released earlier than ANSI C++ finally gets modules or concepts finalized.
