Incidentally, since BicaVM came fairly close to creating a JavaScript JVM, I wonder if we could compile a JVM into NaCl to eliminate additional risk from Java plugins?

Well, Mono and V8 both work with NaCl so it's perfectly possible. The devil is in details, as usual. NaCl does not support all the APIs Java plugin supports (no synchronous API at all) so you can not create drop-in replacement. You can embed NaCl in the usual Java plugin instead... but this will be huge mess so it's not clear if it'll be an advantage or not.
