Hi Sean,

Looks sensible to me.

2. A new JDK-specific system property to disallow the setting of the security manager at run-time: jdk.allowSecurityManager

If set to false, it allows the run-time to optimize the code and improve performance when it is known that an application will never run with a SecurityManager. To support this behavior, the System.setSecurityManager() API has been updated such that it can throw an UnsupportedOperationException if it does not allow a security manager to be set dynamically.

I guess the default value is true?

The behavior makes sense, though the name I think is misleading. It seems not to disallow a security manager, but to disallow the capability to *set* the security manager. Maybe "jdk.allowSetSecurityManager" ?
