You mean similar to the some of the security checks themselves, the code being called checks the caller's classloader ? That seems like another option - though the current initialization process seems to be quite strong on avoiding any kind of security check during the initialization process. I don't know if that is for functional or purely performance reasons. But I'll leave it to Jeroen to clarify exactly what protection is needed.
