Hi again and sorry for the late reply,

That is an interesting experiment. :)

Getting java installed by default is not likely to happen. Java runtimes are 
not exactly "cheap" space-wise and a lot of setups do not need it. Technically 
it is possible to rename the packages themselves, but it is not trivial to 
implement[1]. So I would prefer just updating the description.
  If you or your "guinea pig" (test person) have any suggestions to an upgrade 
let me know, else I will brew something together.

[1] Lots of packages depends on default-jre-headless, default-jre or
default-jdk, plus a lot of Debian/Ubuntu people has been taught to use
these packages.

Calling the package 'default-jdk' is not user friendly
