I'm not sure if this is really creating an "instance" of the interface. Your really creating an inline implementation.

Having interface default constructor would avoid hypothetical code like MyFace obj = new MyFace(){}; obj.init();´, so a bit more than just ´{}´, especially if calling init would be mandatory for implementation.

@hyde: that’s a nonsensical scenario, as there is nothing useful which init() can do. The object created via new MyFace(){} doesn’t contain any state that an init() method could modify.
