In JDK-8231570, I think Chris is concerned that a custom SM will 
observe, and may prevent, send/receive from binding where as an implicit 
bind by connect is not observed by the SM. It will not be wrong for the 
binding in connect to go through the SM too.

The related issue that we touched on here is that 
DatagramChannel.receive does not specify that it discards datagrams when 
denied by the SM. I think we will need to adjust the wording for the 
SecurityException.
