You write the bits needed to support switching jvms at the user level
via environment variables, and you submit them to jpp for merge in
jpackage-utils. This has been explicitely marked as a welcome
enhancement for five years

http://www.jpackage.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/rpms/free/jpackage-utils/doc/jpackage-1.5-policy.xhtml?revision=1.2&root=jpackage&pathrev=MAIN#id2493509

I guess none of the people who need it want to write a line of shell
script.
