What was wrong with the "optional" priority? From the Debian Policy
manual Section 3.1.3.1:
optional[4]
This is all the software that you might reasonably want to install
if you didn't know what it was or don't have specialised
requirements. This is a much larger system and includes X11, a
full TeX distribution, and lots of applications.
extra
This contains packages that conflict with others with higher
priorities, or are only likely to be useful if you already know
what they are or have specialised requirements.
I think it's reasonable to include a Java compiler in optional.
