The root problem is that the Info.plist for an executable is baked into the

linked-against SDK version number).

Any other issues that involve Info.plist parameters or the SDK version are also 
impacted by this problem. I call this problem the launcher problem, because it 
affects all programs (not just Java programs) that are launched by a common 
executable.

I did not check, but as far as I understand it will start to work if we 
"reimplement"
the JDK layout to be like an app layout on top of the "java" command-line app,
something like jdk.app which will have own plist.info and java as a default 
launcher.

In other words, a command-line only solution is worthy of consideration 
(someday).

Right, and as usual any contributions are welcome.
