The jpackage/java way is dictated by jvm internal structures
Restructuring jvm roots was fun enough without touching their internals
If we could have we'd have fully FHSed them, but it was a bit difficult
given the lack control we have on upstream binaries, and all the stuff
that "knows" how a jvm is supposed to be structured
