Re: F27 Self Contained Change: Decouple system java setting from java command setting

Hi,

Frankly, the proposed change seems a great way to accumulate technical debt at a rapid pace, by helping apps to specify various legacy or proprietary Java variants, and postponing taking into account openjdk changes indefinitely.

That's more or less what the proprietary unixes did till the whole house of cards collapsed under the weight of long overdue migration needs.

IIRC the whole alternative system already lets an app specify a specific java version and producer (at least it did in JPackage time). What it does not let people do is to pretend an app is java-version and java-producer agnostic when it isn't. 

Regards,
