I still don't understand what this achieves that alternatives do not.
There is nothing particularly special about Java that requires a more
elaborate alternatives mechanism than any other interpreter. If the
wrapper script for each VM does its job properly then the classpath
should get set to what

The goal is to provide a search mechnism for the alternatives. The
discussion in debian-java has shown, that the alternative machnism
isn't enough and especial isn't reliable.

this script provides a common interface to all of the java execution
systems (compilers, JITs, interpreters or otherwise) by concentrating
