I'd be careful with "known to be secure". AFAIK there's *one* computer
system on this planet that is known to be secure. For everything else,
we assume.

As to integration - it already is. Select "misc" in Linux' binary file
format support option during kernel configuration, and you can run java
files just like ELF executables. How much more integration do you want?
The VM as part of the kernel? I may be 80ish, but that kind of bloat
gives me physical pain.
