I am also in favor of fixing bugs but we should also take the severity
of this issue and the priorities into account. I would definitely like
to see this issue fixed by having non-freezing GTK themed Java
applications and supporting the ATK bridge. But it is apparent that this
change was a regression and badly affects a lot of people.

Since you are still waiting for upstream's opinion and the packages are
not tested yet, I suggest the following steps.

1. Revert this change as soon as possible
2. Ask on debian-java, or people who reported this issue to test the
   packages. I would suggest to write down what exactly should be
   installed and tested.
3. Wait for upstream's opinion / ping them again.
4. Upload when everything is well tested.

Regards,

Markus
