A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
The Java Plug-In needs to allow specification of JVM
parameters (such as -D property settings or -X extended
options) via an HTML PARAM value so that Applets can
customize their JVM environment as needed.
It is not practical (nor proper) to use the Plug-In Control
panel to do this type of setting - not all Applets may
require the same parameters and the end user may not be
knowledgeable enough to make the settings manually.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

CUSTOMER WORKAROUND :
It is possible the modify the users .properties file and
specify values for the javaplugin.jre.params setting - but
this is not really proper since it will affect ALL Applets.
