You could do in that way, but repackingt would be considered the baby
way. Embedding a intact jar in a jar is an unnatural  act.

You could use Java Webstart to ensure the user has the latest jars.
See http://mindprod.com/jgloss/javawebstart.html

You could some sort of installer to handle this for you.
see http://mindprod.com/jgloss/installer.html

You could do it bare-chested style with an embedded
Class-Path in the master jar.
