I am writing an app. that dumps the most common JRE/system
properties for inspection.

So far it includes..
- System.getProperties()
- System.getenv() // environment
- Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getDesktopProperty("win.propNames")
- Basic information on the GraphicsEnvironment and GraphicsDevices
- Locales
- Fonts

I have not yet looked closely at the information available from..
- InetAddress
- CookieManager
- KeyManagerFactory
- LogManager
..but am thinking the last managers are for managing things
created by the application (CookieManager), or specific to
the application invocation environment (LogManager).

Are there any 'must have' properties that I missed?

you might consider dumping .keystore and .cacerts

I hope you make just how much junk you get configurable.
