Actually, since the test is about checking that the 
DeploymentConfiguration data is available through 
System.getProperty()... is there any reason I can't just "abuse" the 
DeploymentConfiguration singleton from JNLPRuntime again? Should work 
just fine, I think still captures the "spirit" of this test, and also 
means we can leave that constant in Defaults as default visibility.
