I'm using Firefox 3.0 now instead of 2.0. Since 3.0 depends on xulrunner adding 
sun-java6-plugin now does not bloat my system (system disk is only 4G).
I see that in sun-java6-plugin.postinst the Java plugin is linked to 
/usr/lib/xulrunner-addons/plugins/libjavaplugin.so plus some 
update-alternatives voodoo (at least to me ;). Using Firefox 2.0 and 
sun-java6-plugin probably requires manual linking or update-alternatives 
actions. So sun-java6-plugin does only work with Firefox 3.0 out of the box. 
This is probably the reason for the dependenxy on xulrunner.

Epiphany uses libjavaplugin_oji.so from
/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun-1.6.0.06/jre/plugin and Java seems to work on
java.com.
