Anyone who needs it will install it.  What's your point?  Java is used more for business applications than programs for random individuals.  If you want to run certain web conference software in IE you have to install a plugin.
We all try to avoid dependencies to simplify software as much as possible, to the point of the 'put your thumbprint here' commercials for that tax software, but when they are required everyone will get them if they want to run the software, and installing a JRE isn't very difficult.
