This results in if some of this projects ends up being rebuild with Java 8 it might start using Java 8 bytecode resulting in some parts of Eclipse not working or even not starting at all.

I consider this as bugs in individual packages. If someone wants to make
effort to list Eclipse dependencies (or Fedora Java packages, in
general) which are compiled with default source/target and thus
defaulting to 1.8 then I am willing to fix or help fixing these bugs.
