Kyle Weaver updated BEAM-11394:
-------------------------------
Description:
We need Java to run job servers in subprocesses [1]. Currently this code always
uses the "java" executable on the $PATH. But changing $PATH or adding an alias
is a global(ish) change, and it's cumbersome, or even impossible in some
environments (Forge). Having a pipeline option for it is easier and better
isolated.

We need Java to run job servers, expansion services etc. in subprocesses [1]
