David, I agree. But, it would be nice to be able to access Java Objects from a scripting language. For example, If someone wanted to use Lucene to index their site, and the site already exists in php. Then it would be appropriate to be able to interact with the Lucene java objects and integrate that into the already existing system. I'm not saying that you should start a project thinking I'll build my web pages with php and my logic with java. That would be foolish. But, I can see where this would be handy in tightening the performance of legacy interaction as systems upgrade. Don't you think?

Why not ECMA, VB or Perl. Then >again, if you don't want it... don't use it :-D I disagree with your last statement. If you're coding a project yourself, you can make sure you stay away from what you consider bad style, confusing constructs, etc. When on a team, or inheriting an old project, it's much different. In my experience, when a language allows too much flexibility you end up with a real mess. One of the best features of Java is the limited amount of allowed language constructs and idioms which leads to easily understandable code. Learning the "rules" of Java is much easier than learning the rules of C++ or Perl. I realize everyone has their own favorite language but if I wanted to write scripts I wouldn't be using Java to begin with.
