Kyle Weaver updated BEAM-11414:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
We need Java to run expansion services in subprocesses [1]. Currently this code 
always uses the "java" executable on the $PATH. But changing $PATH or adding an 
alias is a global(ish) change, and it's cumbersome, or even impossible in some 
environments (Forge). Having a pipeline option for it is easier and better 
isolated.
