/**
* This class is for JAXB permissions. A {@code JAXBPermission}
* contains a name (also referred to as a "target name") but
* no actions list; you either have the named permission
* or you don't.
*
* <P>
* The target name is the name of the JAXB permission (see below).
*
* <P>
* The following table lists all the possible {@code JAXBPermission} target names,
* and for each provides a description of what the permission allows
* and a discussion of the risks of granting code the permission.
* <P>
*
* <table border=1 cellpadding=5 summary="Permission target name, what the permission allows, and associated risks">
* <tr>
* <th>Permission Target Name</th>
* <th>What the Permission Allows</th>
* <th>Risks of Allowing this Permission</th>
* </tr>
*
* <tr>
* <td>setDatatypeConverter</td>
* <td>
* Allows the code to set VM-wide {@link DatatypeConverterInterface}
* via {@link DatatypeConverter#setDatatypeConverter(DatatypeConverterInterface) the setDatatypeConverter method}
* that all the methods on {@link DatatypeConverter} uses.
* </td>
* <td>
* Malicious code can set {@link DatatypeConverterInterface}, which has
* VM-wide singleton semantics, before a genuine JAXB implementation sets one.
* This allows malicious code to gain access to objects that it may otherwise
* not have access to, such as {@link Frame#getFrames()} that belongs to
* another application running in the same JVM.
