+## Note - this test is disabled because the intent for 2.7 was *not*
+## to support the ability to arbitrarily switch the security policy
+## at any time (which would currently be nearly impossible to do in
+## a way that would be sane for 3rd party apps that may already have
+## imported parts of the security machinery), but just to make sure
+## that the config file could be used to initially set the implementation
+## to be used. The policy setting is 'initialize once' - setImplementation
+## should not be called either by user code or unit tests, as the
+## effects are officially undefined.
