I don't think anyone doubts the value; just the funding. We also don't have
the best record of two-way collaboration with OpenJUMP.
There is also a java api; if you were willing to do the same dummy jar approach
currently employed for arcsde. Make a jar with stub methods so we can compile
the code in our normal java build process as a "compile" dependency; and sub in
the actual esri jar (which we cannot distribute) as an "provided" dependency
for those using the code?
A nice approach for this is to develop against the real jar; and then change
dependency; and then add methods to fix all the compile errors.

But yes setting up a datastore based on ContentDataStore could be done fairly
quickly.
