Each domain that is created in the app server has its own security 
policy file.  It needs to give the appropriate permissions to all the 
various different sections of its code, and there's a basic set of 
permissions granted to application code in the context.  If you want 
anything exotic (or even dangerous like offering permission to 
create your own classloaders) then you have to edit the policy file.  
I'll include this in the doc.
