I agree, this would be really handy to have. As it is, the JMF installer shell script doesn't work on Hardy:

Permit writing local files from an applet? (recommend no, see readme.html) [yes or no]
no

Done.

I haven't figured out exactly what's wrong but it would be great if we could install this package the Debian way.
