khtml/java/tests/good_sites has a long list.

http://www.h-online.com/security/services/Java-747799.html indeed works here
(with Webkit, and somewhat with KHTML -- slower, and not always on the first 
try, reloading is necessary).

I tried removing the doNotManage() call, and...
that makes the applets appear as standalone windows in the topleft corner of 
the desktop, temporarily, until they get merged into the browser window.

In all cases, Alt+Tab shows strange "KJAS Applet" entries, mapped to rects in 
the topleft corner, but I can't switch to these windows, they don't appear in 
the taskbar, and I can't even find which process to kill in order to get rid of 
that... (Alt+Tab still shows that after closing konqueror).

Webkit doesn't need such a WM hack, so indeed there must be another way, but I 
have no idea about the technical details behind java applets.
