I see, I didn't pay full attention while reading your first post.
This would solve the problem for the "use target file in IDE" scenario.

Just for the record, there is also the install/update usecase which will still not work if you haven't configured any p2 repo that provides the bogus "a.jre.*" IUs.
For that matter, the eclipse release train repos do have such IUs for hardcoded JavaSE-1.6.
But as soon as e.g. a bundle requires a package included in JavaSE-1.7 only, this will break.
