External question sites indicate that users have difficulty converting between java.util.Date and LocalDate, and also between Instant and LocalDate/LocalTime. This user difficulty can be resolved with some additional methods.
Currently, the following methods exist:
ZonedDateTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
OffsetDateTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
LocalDateTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
OffsetTime.ofInstant(Instant, ZoneId);
This enhancement proposes to add the same method to LocalDate and LocalTime. It can reasonably be argued this was a simple oversight in the original development.
