Yes, as I recall the reaction to the use of '#' was very positive when it was suggested by FCM, and later adopted by BGGA. I certainly don't remember there being very many complaints about it. MethodHandles may well deserve syntactic support from the language, but if so there are other choices which don't already have precedent in Java.

I think we SHOULD use the hash symbol, BECAUSE it is already used in Javadoc.

The hash symbol is already used in Javadoc for method and fields, so > we shouldn't apply it to something else. > >
