Modifying the JRE installation via the endorsed this might be the only way to do this, but that really means that everyone using that JRE gets your hack and doesn't really support any kind of deployment lifecycle at all.
If you try to do this via a custom classloader that loads a java.* class without going via the root classloader is something that I tried before and at least at the time that was prevented via a security-related verification exception...
