It's actually quite a difficult issue to fix properly.

The vendor name is used in the user interface. The current hack of
overwriting it with "Oracle Corporation" hides the real vendor in the UI,
so we shouldn't do that.

The whole jvmfwk API uses the vendor as an identifier. We have to change
identification. This could affect the public API for that module.

The vendor is expected to match our list of vendors, to the point where (if
I understand correctly) jvmfwk searches for Java by first reading our known
Java vendors, and then searching for each one, so the search logic also has
to change.

I'll have to understand the internals of that module in detail.
