A DESCRIPTION OF THE REQUEST :
I need to write some webstart applications that can access machines over the network other than the home server. Unfortunately, in order to do that I need to grant all-permissions, which grants me more priviliges than I need, such as unprotected access to the disk.
JUSTIFICATION :
Why must permissions be an all or nothing deal? Why can't I only request permissions necessary to access the internet? Many of my users will not trust me, and I'd like to provide them with as much assurance as I can. Knowing their disk is safe would help a lot with this.
