JDK-8015681 - Control panel doesn't allow you to set parameters for JVM that actually runs
Description
FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version  " 1.7.0_25 " 
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_25-b16)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 23.25-b01, mixed mode)


ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
No runtime parameters set in the Java Control Panel or deployment.properties take effect in the launched jvm.

For example setting java language parameters
deployment.javaws.jre.0.args=-Djava.language\=de
or debug parameters like reported in Bug ID 8015078
take effect.

When an applet is launched in the browser, the runtime parameters are passed to the jp2launcher. This can be verified in Windows task manager commandline column showing the jp2launcher process.

This was working in any version before 7u21.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Launch any applet with runtime parameters set in the Java Control Panel.
Check if the runtime parameters take effect.
See Bug 8015078 : Debugging parameters are not working


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

I can't find jp2launcher in the bin directory, this appears to be plugin related, I am assigning this to plugin team for their evaluation.
