I concur with you that they should be configurable; that applies not
only to webrev but to the whole of OpenJDK. Those of us outside Sun
obviously don't have that /java hierarchy lying around (or even know
what it looks like, except by trial-and-error). I did think most of
them were.override-able though and webrev works fine here without
/java.
