I think that makes sense, but a lot is going to come down to space. What packages give me the plugin?

java-1.7.0-icedtea-plugin. Space considerations understood.

can we enable it for the default fedora install? (non live installation) we are using a dvd anyway so I doubt space would be a issue.

Sure. And I've CC'd Tom Fitzsimmons to tell us about the security situation surrounding it.

A working java plugin out of the box makes sense for mainline fedora too...

Definitely - Andrew what you should do as I understand things is to get this file changed: http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewcvs/comps/comps-f8.xml.in?rev=1.71&view... Just stick it in graphical-internet?
