I'm not sure it's in icedtea-java7, perhaps it would make sense for postinst of any java related package to verify that the java related alternatives are all sane and functional, and fix them otherwise. Perhaps this is not specific to java packages either, perhaps it is a general issue with alternatives. Unfortunately, I will not be able to reproduce this issue again, so it might be hard to test.
