The applet drag and drop "Desktop Integration Warning" occurs only when the browser window is closed/changed. This could be days after the applet was drug to the desktop. Here is a use case that I think we should improve: drag applet out do stuff that buries the applet window close the browser tab that the applet came from. If I must be prompted now, I expect the dialog to come up right as I hit close. Instead, "Desktop Integration Warning" is flashing behind the browser, and when I bring that dialog to the foreground, the Weather now applet is not visible if it is behind other windows. Per Ken R's response to my email: Please feel free to file an RFE under java/java_plugin/plugin2 about this. To implement the functionality of creating desktop shortcuts for a dragged-out applet in the new Java Plug-In we only call the preexisting LocalInstallHandler code in Java Web Start. We could consider calling it earlier, when the applet is dragged to the desktop rather than when the user switches away from the web page, or at least we could make this an option controllable via an applet parameter. In the current code it was most natural to call the LocalInstallHandler when the web page was closed. Please feel free to file an RFE under java/java_plugin/plugin2 about this. See email thread in comments. To address this RFE we should add a new applet parameter which the developer may specify to have the LocalInstallHandler called as soon as the applet is dragged out of the browser. Suggested parameter: <param name="eager_install" value="true">
