I actually like the idea of doing an extension module for it. Even the
module is really just a tutorial and instructions, I think it could raise
the visibility of it substantially. Since many people just go to the
download page, especially if they've been using GeoServer for awhile. I
think it's ok if it's very little or even no code - it _is_ a functionality
that extends and enhances GeoServer.
And it sounds like the module could perhaps adjust the start up options,
and maybe complain in your GeoServer if you didn't successfully get it in
the jdk/jre?
