Title: Example Java8 method reference usage

Hi Decebal,

This is some example code which works with stock Pippo if you are running Java 8 and demonstrates what I meant. The commented out approach would be ideal, I think. I know you want to stay on a Java 7 base, but consider the ramp-up time for a web framework to gain traction and then consider that Oracle ends support for Java 7 within the next 6-12 months. JRE8 is now the default runtime on java.com. Long-term it might make more sense to adopt J8 as a base. Just my thoughts. :smile:

This is just a throw-away PR, but really for merging, BTW.
