Not for me, for yourself if you want to build an x11-less distro.

I patched the jdk8 I submitted to build without x11, not because it's display less,
but because it uses EGL and framebuffer.

Because jdk8 requires https://github.com/rehsack/poky/commit/04f606795c29705e4e053895f1f007e3b4e3cd17 - you have to cherry-pick the jdk8 patch and revert-x11-disto-prereq from https://github.com/rehsack/meta-java/commits/master to use jdk8.

Cheers
