If you can get by without adding eternal dependencies, outside of the JVM,
as a general rule you should, if only to minimize failure points.

One area where Java classes are greatly preferable is protection from
runtime errors

Speaking of runtime, is there a trick to preventing jython from
caching/printing the full build path on exceptions?  We don't want
developer usernames (as part of their build path) showing up on end-user
systems.
