Description
The Applet test in the TCK fail because changes for new plugin no longer allow exitVM permission to applets.
The distinction should be plugin vs javawebstart not applets vs applications.
applets run in Java Web Start should have the exitVM permission.

Comments
EVALUATION use classloader to determine if plugin or webstart is loading applet in AppPolicy.
