      I would like to be able to say

      java -jar http://www.somewhere.com/application/appcode.jar

      and have it pick up the jar and run it. You could give the url
      a base url that has the file protocol set, so that

      java -jar appcode.jar

      would default to the local file appcode.jar, and have security
      stuff work apropreately based upon the jar source.


      It would be another nice way to integrate java and the web, and
      make my life easier.
