More accurately, they'd rather you don't use it.  The documents
at developer.apple.com on the Java Bridge all have "deprecated"
status, and even Aaron Hillegass suggests not using it, unless
you really really want to.

Truth be told, it's not entirely clear what the Bridge's status
is, other than that Apple doesn't want you to rely on it.

So, I'd say go ahead with your plans until better reasoning
can be supplied..
