I have noticed that for a good deal of CNI code it is quite straight

That would be great, but surprising. I would think you'd need
a fair bit of analysis to convert CNI to JNI.
If we could maintain native methods in readable CNI, possibly
with some annotations/conventions to ease the script's job,
and generate JNI automatically from that, it might solve
much of the CNI vs JNI problems. For the hard bits, we could
use #ifdef CNI sections.
