firewall is fully trusted, then don't worry about it.  If not everyone is
fully trusted, then your current settings allow those persons to make
arbitrary changes to the configuration of Tomcat and your webapps with
rather limited tracking of who did what.  The MBeans exposed by the JMX
interface are not just viewable, they are modifiable by anyone with access.
