>If the Java application is not using the default LAF as defined by
/etc/java-X-openjdk/swing.properties and its LAF can only be changed
through _JAVA_OPTIONS then it means the application is setting LAF by
itself.

I have my own application (https://github.com/Yanpas/PdfMerger), which
manually sets System style! And openjdk still sets crossplatform blue
style! It's definetely a bug. There should be no difference between
_JAVA_OPTIONS and swing.properties!

Title:
  Native Look and Feel for Swing does not work

Status in openjdk-7 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in openjdk-8 package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Openjdk-7 and openjdk-8 do not enable native look and feel by default. But they support it. Apps use ugly blue theme, even if the code contains "UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());"
  I've tried Xubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu Mate 16.04 - apps look ugly. (for example logisim)

  To get native LAF you need to use these arguments: _JAVA_OPTIONS 
  -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -Dswing.crossplatformlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel
