Hi Eric!

Yes, it works for ditaa. However I was unable to do that for plantuml as
it does not respect :java alist (?) element in a similar fashion. I had
to edit ob-plantuml.el for that as it has hardcoded "java -jar" so no
way to insert anything in-between.

I am confident that for all folks working with orgmode remotely using,
let's say, SSH connection without X11 tunneling, blocks calling such
java tools will fail. So I'd call it a bug. Either there should be a way
to supply :java to other similar "languages", or headless option should
be set by default.
