I think they do and that that's the gist of the issue. You don't expect
to run an app just because you're opening a web page. I suppose the app
kinda breaks the browser sandbox, and that that's the problem. In a
world that deliberately discourages personal responsibility, it then
becomes Sun/Oracle's responsibility -- not sensu strictu, but in effect.

Altering java.policy is even worse a solution than leaving it enabled in
the Applets, I would say. It tells tale of the crookedness of the
situation that you should be led to such an extreme.
