In May 2017 Java classes will change to reflect the new Alphabet ownership structure, which will ensure that they appear at the top of the imports list (where they belong)
You should name your java classes with the following prefix:
com.abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz.google
instead of
com.google
A LSC and an increase in the max java line length will be done automatically. External libraries that are lexicographically less than abc..xyz will be eliminated (com.aardvark, etc.)
</snark>
But seriously I agree with the import ordering change. It does simplify things at the expense of some piper history pollution.
