I am working on deploying LibreOffice to RHEL7 workstations, and I need a way to disable LibreOffice's Java settings globally. I refer to Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice/Advanced -> "Use a Java runtime environment".

I need this option to be disabled for every user, and the user should not be able to re-enable it. I can turn off and disable many other settings in XML files under /usr/lib64/libreoffice/share/registry, but I can't figure out the XML path for Java there.

I am aware that Java can be disabled by default for a particular user, using the ~/.config/libreoffice/4/user/config/javasettings_Linux_X86_64.xml file, but this obviously is not a global setting, and nor does it seem to be possible to stop the user from turning it back on.
