The "main goal" behind this task is to avoid the need for a
java-runtime fo tasks where it isn't needed, i.e. to replace stuff
that is currently using java with c/c++ code.

Of course it doesn't make sense to just rip it out for the sake of it,
the replacement must support the same features as the java based
implementation.

And as you already noticed it doesn't make sense to require an other
runtime environment such as mono/.net instead.
