AccessController.getInheritedAccessControlContext, does it need to call through the VM

Is there any reason for 
AccessController.getInheritedAccessControlContext to be a native method? 
I'm wondering if we can use the shared secrets mechanism to read the 
Thread.inheritedAccessControlContext field instead.
