I use sun-jdk-1.5 myself (as generation 2 system vm [1]) as well as blackdown-jdk-1.4 (as generation 1 system vm and nsplugin). However sun-{jdk,jre} for amd64 does not include a nsplugin (applet support), so it won't work for online-banking. For that you'll need either blackdown-{jdk,jre} (not yet available in 1.5 version), or a manually installed 32-bit sun-{jdk,jre}. As for jre vs. jdk you are right. It's just that as portage requires you to have a jdk to emerge java programs/libraries anyway I find it convenient to just install jdks. That's just a personal opinion though.
