If you're having an issue with Java support, then by all means open a new bug report. I have been using the 64 bit version of Firefox for quite a while and have no problems with Java support. As for the request it has been registered. If you'd like to push it through faster, you'll need feedback from the community and this is not the place for it. You could make a proposal on http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com Otherwise, it'll wait until someone has time and wants to work on it like any other feature request.
