Is it possible with oomph to have the JRE copied inside the eclipse installation in the jre subfolder (i.e folder eclipse\jre) so that it will be included in each installation?

It's possible in principle, but there are some details that would need attention. E.g., not generating a -vm entry in the eclipse.ini. Also, while a Resource Copy task can be used to unzip a remote resource (zip) into a local folder, on Mac and Linux there is the issue of setting the executable bits for the JRE to be properly functional.

Note that we have approval to redistribute OpenJDK so some work will be done in this area soon:
