We're still tolerating older dependencies in 5.0 milestones but should eventually raise the baseline for 5.0 GA. In rather obvious cases, we'd gain quite a bit by going Jetty 9.4+ (for WebSocket support) and OkHttp 3+, both of which look entirely feasible in Spring 5.
Another one still up for consideration is Hibernate ORM 5.2+ for our native orm.hibernate5 package, while our JPA support will remain compatible with Hibernate 4.3+ in any case. However, since JBoss EAP 7 still comes with Hibernate ORM 5.0.x, this does not seem feasible yet. We might rather drop the entire native Hibernate API support at some point.
