I'm pondering more about how to best solve this issue. How about having some 
way of triggering this behavior, a property or something else, that would only 
be used for the purpose of testing with EMMA? If property X is set, the network 
server removes the security manager right before doing shutdown, but only in 
the case were it has installed a security manager itself with the default 
policy.

What is the view on adding such an interface (property or similar) to the 
product, which is only intended for testing purposes?
