Admittedly these three ones are really needed by the software you are 
looking at. Would you consider packaging them?

It is feasible to patch the code to avoid needing this one, as is done 
by one of the patches of the jalview source package for instance. Other 
Look-and-Feel systems are handled by the code of Zettelkasten.

You really don't have to worry about mh_installjar, instead in 
debian/control you should build-depend on maven-debian-helper which will 
do the right things to install the jars provided you fill in the files 
described at
	https://wiki.debian.org/Java/MavenDebianHelper
among others the debian/$PACKAGE.poms file.

A quick copyright review lead to no show-stopper, so you can go ahead 
with packaging.

I think the first thing to do is to package the dependencies
	org.jdesktop:swing-worker
	org.jdesktop:appframework
	bibtex:javabib
as they obviously will be needed.
