Teavm

So, I recently came across TeaVM (http://teavm.org/)
Similar to GWT but unlike GWT, which compiles Java Source Code to JavaScript, TeaVM compiles Java Byte Code to JavaScript.
It is an interesting approach.
The big advantage to this approach is that you do not have to create and maintain your own compiler.
You ride on the back of the JavaC compiler and can take advantage of the optimizations, latest changes and updates made to the compiler.
So while GWT is working on supporting Java 8 , TeaVM already provides support for that.

What do you guys think?
What are the pros/cons of this approach ?
