This is a very interesting discussion. How to reference default methods from implemented interfaces throughout the class / interface hierarchy?

Situation:

interface K {
  int m() default { return 88; }
}

interface J extends K {
  int m() default { return K.super.m(); }
                        // ^^^^^^^^^^^^ How to express this?
}

Solution ideas:

• K.super.m()
• super.K.m()
• ((K) super).m()
• K::m()
• K.default.m()
• super<K>.m()
• super(K).m()
• super(K.class).m()
• super[K].m()

Any other crazy ideas? See the discussion here:
