> Current providers of {{DynamicPolicy}} in the starter kit do not provide support for {{UmbrellaGrantPermission}} as {{PolicyFileProvider}} does. It seems reasonable to add support for this. For a motivational example, see the following post on jini-users:
> [DynamicPolicyProvider can't deal with UmbrellaGrantPermission|http://archives.java.sun.com/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0607&L=jini-users&F=&S=&P=14665]
> In the specific case of {{DynamicPolicyProvider}} in addition to handling the case where an {{UmbrellaGrantPermission}} has been granted through its grant method, it also makes sense to process {{UmbrellaGrantPermissions}} that may have been granted in the base policy.
