As per my notes on PR, this would require updating minimum required Joda version to 2.9.
While not unreasonable (2.9 has been out for 4 years now), it needs to go in a new minor version, I think (as a general rule).

I send a note on jackson-dev mailing list, asking if anyone knew of potential issues, but assuming none reported, I can and will merge this for 2.11 branch.
