Well, yes, if you want your extension to run Java code, the user will 
need to have a JVM installed.  That's how Java works.  :-)

JavaXPCOM doesn't yet support building extensions in Java.  I am working 
on a Java component loader 
(https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=299263) which would allow 
this, but I haven't finished it yet.

The other option is to use Liveconnect from a JavaScript extension, as 
documented here:
