Follow-up Comment #3, bug #53389 (project octave):

JAVA_HOME is a good idea insofar as on Windows this setting is ignored AFAIK
and in any case not present on Windows PCs at my home and at work.

However maybe we should care for possible other SW out there that might use
JAVA_HOME for similar or different purposes, like expecting it to point to the
"standard" Java (e.g., SW that cannot read the registry).
Having this setting in Octave's underlying cmd shell invocation rather than as
a global setting might be polite.
