I proposed a while ago to implement a custom java policy for the SecurityManager which uses XML for configuring permissions for the Java SecurityManager.

It's an open discussion :)
However, I'd say this is an uphill battle. I think Costin argued the same earlier, and the "standard" policy file remained consistent, and now added JMX security rather (which is an important feature since we're now JMX based). So well, I don't know ...

From what I recall of the discussion, the issue was not with adding this as a feature, but with how it was implemented using Castor.
For those who have to maintain strict java security policies the current policy file format of granting permissions is a pain to use. The XML based policy feature I designed is much easier to use.
