The GeoServer home is assumed automatically to be the parent folder of the
script if not set, but we
do not try to guess the java home automatically.

Hmm... looking around it seems that's actually possible:

However not sure if the registry keys are changing now that
Oracle owns Java. Anyone wants to give this approach a spin?
Patches for the startup script would be very welcomed.
