     I have no experience with the iOS App Store.  None.

     It does occur to me, though, that adding an extra layer of
translation (bytecode to machine instructions) might make the
verification/inspection process harder.

     In any case, this sub-thread is (as I said at the start)
something of a digression.  For myself, I feel that Java on a
server or on a desktop running local applications is fine --
but Java in a browser?  No Thank You, Very Much.  My $0.02.
