That is, release-based automated builds, and to automatically, easily maintain

Your customers with newer software don't need to be 'punished with' binaries 
made for/from older Java, when newer Java versions might offer some sort of 
instruction-level enhancements.

Don't know if that makes sense in the way I'm hoping it will... let me know.

Not really. Compiled Java (no matter what level) is just byte code that is interpreted at execution time or -- if discovered to be "hot" enough -- Just-In-Time compiled with a  highly-advanced optimizer that targets the hardware it is running on.
