Yes - JConsole (using DiagnosticCommandImpl.java) showing the permissions is more relevant, I wasn't going to change that right now.
Removing the Permissions from the jcmd help output (in a separate change) will make that jconsole info better, as the Permission info is duplicated in the help text and the permission fields that it shows.
