So is there a use case any longer for users to be able to set a preference for a different
JRE from the one running the IDE?

I think usecase about SWT.Webkit under Win64 still not missed. Plus usecase for Linux
users you mention above.
Anyway, choosing jvm special for browsersim is pretty good imo.
Is BrowserSim 'select JRE' option obsolete?

Key: JBIDE-17229
URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-17229
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Enhancement
Components: browsersim
Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Beta1
Reporter: Michelle Murray
Assignee: Konstantin Marmalyukov
The preference to select a JRE with which to run BrowserSim was introduced so that 64-bit
Windows users could run the IDE as 64-bit but use BrowserSim in 32-bit (since Apple Safari
was only available as 32-bit for Windows).
Now there is JavaFX option for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows users to run BrowserSIm. So
64-bit Windows users no longer need to install 32-bit Apple Safari and run BrowserSim
32-bit while IDE runs in 64-bit.
So is there a use case any longer for users to be able to set a preference for a
different JRE from the one running the IDE?
