I don't think interactive or remote download will be ever allowed, as you loose reproduceability and the digital package signature becomes worthless (Sun for example was famous for hiding its java files behind web forms *and* changing the contents of the zip files without notifying anybody) That means you need to deconstruct the install process to use local files only.
