Not a stupid proposal, but the jar manifest is really at the wrong level. This 
kind of thing is addressed by JNLP. It's possible to specify initial and max 
heap sizes, JDK versions, etc. in a JNLP file. See

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/javaws/developersguide/contents.html

There are lots of resources and tutorials about JNLP around the web.
