I actually files a bug on this one last week:
#4305886 - JNLP files litter the desktop
:-)

Out of the three envs (Win, Linux, Mac) i've used JWS, Mac is the
only one that puts the JNLP file in the user download directory.
Think there are any plans to put the JNLP file in the user's cache
directory and point the JWS file URL to there? man, i'm sick of
purging 30-40 Foo-XX.jnlp files!

I didn't mean to imply that the JNLP content could be passed directly
to JWS without being written to a file first. I believe that WebStart
requires the JNLP content to be written to a file, and then be
invoked
on that file. It might be interesting to try sending WebStart a GURL
AppleEvent for a JNLP URL to see what happens, however, that is not
the normal mode of operation.
Web Start (or Cache Viewer in 1.5) does not respond to GURL
events. As you point out, both of these applications just pick up
a JNLP file and launch a Java VM with all of the settings from the
JNLP file.
