I doubt that -- their main claim to fame is shrinking the download
size (ie not requiring the JRE) -- but if you support runtime loaded
classes, you have to have the *entire* JRE library around, since you
don't know what classes/methods might be needed at runtime.

You may be right. But you could also design a scheme where missing jre parts could
be downloaded automatically after-installation. Who knows.

Of course, all this is total speculation... I guess what we really
need is to hear from somebody who's used the product.

Yes
