> PrivilegedActions is public. It offers several method, e.g. getClassLoader() 
> which are executed surrounded by privileged actions. Thus any caller can get 
> e.g. a classloader, even if the caller has not the required permissions.
> PrivilegedActions should offer only factory methods creating the privileged 
> actions. Then the callers should call AccessController.doPrivileged() for 
> themselves, such that the actions will be executed in the caller's security 
> domain, instead of the domain of the BeanValidation API.
