Well, comps has this:
<group>
<id>java</id>
<_name>Java</_name>
<_description>Support for running programs written in the Java
programming language.</_description>
<default>true</default>
<uservisible>true</uservisible>
<packagelist>
<packagereq type="mandatory">java-1.5.0-gcj</packagereq>
<packagereq type="mandatory">libgcj</packagereq>
<packagereq type="default">java-1.6.0-openjdk</packagereq>
<packagereq type="default">icedtea-web</packagereq>
</packagelist>
</group>
so it looks like it is in by default, on a DVD install at least. For
live images, Desktop and Xfce correctly specify icedtea-web, lxde
specifies the old name java-1.6.0-openjdk-plugin (not sure if this would
get ignored, or replaced with icedtea-web via the obsoletes/provides).
KDE doesn't appear to specify either (though Konq does its own thing
with plugins, so maybe it happens some other way).
Seems like this was fixed in comps on April 25, so I think it missed
beta:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=comps.git;a=commit;h=2b43cce0c50a745436cef839e6d5300210af0d7f
was fixed in spin-kickstarts for Desktop on April 18:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=spin-kickstarts.git;a=commit;h=c4346cc171bc4f81be11c4364d84a064a21a8323
and for Xfce on April 16:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/?p=spin-kickstarts.git;a=commit;h=4e6a805d075699db5666d4effd3bf3ab3624f263
again, missing Beta. So I'd expect this is probably broken in Beta and
fixed in TC1, as the executive summary...
