JWS has got troubles, but it's not necessarily wrong. I see them working
where I am and there's a complex application. In any case, NetBeans or
Eclipse can help. For what concerns special rights, this is not a problem,
but a requirement, in case your application needs to access local
resources. Not having this step would be a big hole in security.
