Wow. That was kind of random.
Anyway... I had never heard about this "permanent residency after 5 years" thing. I was under the understanding that to be a permanent resident you need to have a full time job or be married here. You can't "default" to a permanent residency, I thought. The last thing Japan wants is foreigners without jobs, which would occur under the system you describe.
Maybe it is something new, but I have never heard of it before...
