Oh, please god no! I find the way the buffer classes are generated a real pain. Yes, it is good for maintaining consistency across similar versions, but I don't see that as a good justification to introduce this complexity. I was secretly hoping that nio Buffer generation would go away in jdk8. I assume the "pain" with the generated buffer classes is in the IDE so you need to remember to include the gensrc tree in the project.

Right, but this assumes you to have a build. They also don't play well with tools that index the source, like opengrok.
