I think you'll need to do a write-up of the overall proposal so that 
folks can jump in and point out the implications. It's not easy to do 
this in a code review of a small piece of the solution. I suspect that 
security-dev will be interested in the details for signed JARs as I 
don't think the current proposal prevents tampering of the file permissions.
