ubuntu-restricted-extras contains restricted in its name. In an ideal world you wouldn't need this package. The switched dependency is due to bug #344705. When the IcedTea plugin works like Sun's Java plugin, the dependencies can be changed back. BTW, according to popcon [1] 25 % have

Vistaus +1 It's completely irresponsible, to put an outdated and insecure JRE in ubuntu-restricted-extras. Either put a secure version of JRE in u-r-e, and then keep JRE secure, by providing updates for it. Or don't put it in u-r-e at all, and preferably not even in the repo's. Nearly everyone

Vistaus, Sun's Java isn't preferred over IcedTea. It's just that IcedTea might not work for everybody so were including an alternative in ubuntu-restricted-extras. u-r-e isn't installed by default. Hopefully we can remove u-r-e at all, when there's an open source alternative for all the packages

The old version (36) didn't recommend sun-java6-plugin on i386 which 37 does. I don't think that downloading the package and installing it via gdebi is a common use case. It is a recommendation because ubuntu-restricted-extras is a meta-package. The nice thing about recommends is, that you can
