  It could mean setting a SAFE level.  That may be appropriate in a 
sandbox model.  There are many details to this though (think about
safety and allowing java integration for example).  Plus, most of
our functions have no safety checks in them yet.  That would be a fun
project for someone :)  Plus about a trillion unit tests.

  My main task right now is just considering how to make all the
magic global vars and include paths get set up in a sane way using
JSR223.  Configuration of the runtime in a secure env seems like it has
some decent overlap.  I will try and keep my eyes open on this task
when I do this work.  Hell, I may even make a appletized-JRuby too.
