Note that this is not true in Fiji: as we ship a Java compiler, we
integrated transparent support for .java files.  Just drop the .java files
anywhere in plugins/ and Fiji will show them in the appropriate place in
the Plugins menu.

Leaving the .java files in plugins/ if you do not need/want them would be
sloppy anyway.
