The issue is OpenJDK does not properly run most, if any, Java applets.
This is a serious issue that should have been addressed in the
roadmap, not as a sidenote to a milestone release.

If it is not clear enough already... Oracle retired the license that
permits redistribution, hence even if we want to keep it, it is not
legally possible.

Complains about missing functionality should be directed to Oracle...
much luck with that :-|

I'd suggest directing those complaints to the OpenJDK devs as bug
reports. OpenJDK has for years felt 95% there to being feature complete
with Oracle Java, it's a good time to close that gap.
