Description
A signed jnlp applet that request all-permission. e.g 

<security>
  <all-permissions/>
</security>

does not run if certificate dialog is cancelled by user.

One testcase is at http://javafx.com/samples/EffectsPlayground/index.html
Comments
EVALUATION In the new Java Plug-in, when user cancel certificate dialog of a JNLP applet that request all-permissions, we stop running the applet. Memory cache of the denied urls is cleared so user can reload the page (or choose to reload via java error panel) and given the second chance to run the applet.
