I actually need Java for work, but I don't really need anything beyond java-1.8.0-openjdk (or maybe a newer version in the future). As an IDE, I have to use NetBeans directly from upstream because the Fedora package was discontinued years ago, sadly. And for libraries, all the (non-JDK/JRE) JARs our projects need are checked in in our repositories anyway, so I don't need any Java system libraries. (Well, currently, I use a system Tomcat package for local testing, but I don't even use it as a system service, but with a CATALINA_BASE in my home directory, so I'm quite likely to just switch to unpacking the upstream Tomcat directly there at some point.)
