This is, regrettably, not specific to the java interface generator in SWIG 
but can be said about basically any language binding it creates. The Perl 
bindings for GLPK work quite similarly to the way you describe: a low-level 
SWIG-generated binding is wrapped inside a nice perlish interface class with 
some convenience functions.

I too second the inclusion of the glpk.i into the GLPK source tree.
