Yes, correct. The only way I know to make them conflict is to have a 
broken classloader (the one that ships by default with Jetty is, for 
example). There's not much I can do if the user installed an old JAI,
the java extensions mechanism is designed for the purpose of making
the jar you put in jre/lib/ext available to all apps, and override
whatever they have in the classpath.
