I am not sure which limitations you refer to, but for things you pointed
earlier like java.ext.dirs, -Xmx or other things like that, we will
never be able to achieve (2). I never intended to do more than (1).

(1) is good enough for some developers and it's also a good way of
keeping us honest when supporting the OSGi enabled embedded case (forgot
how Byron named it).
