From what I understand it, this would require the VMs to run in remote
debug mode. This is a good start - but, I was looking more for something
that could do in a real production environment.
Is there a way to trick the VM into forcing a class to be garbage
collected, and re-initiate it? Would it be possible to force a GC of a
class while there are still objects instantiated from it? It kinda seems
impossible to me - but just wanted to air the idea for comments.

Sure, using the JPDA. Actually, Daniel Savarese wrote an article describing your exact case:

All,
Is there a way to redefine a class on the fly? I know that we could have custom classloaders that could potentially modify byte code on the fly while loading a class. But, would it be possible to dynamically unload the class and redefine it? I want to have a way of "rolling back" my changes that have been done to a class.
Any thoughts on this?
