Can GBean get its configuration ClassLoader?

	I wonder if there's a way for a GBean to get the ClassLoader for 
the configuration it's a part of -- in other words, the 
GBeanMBean.getClassLoader(), which includes the dependencies in the 
deployment plan, etc.
	I want the SQLSecurityRealm to be able to load a driver class.  
However, the SQLSecurityRealm itself was loaded in the Server
configuration, and the JDBC driver is included as a dependency of the
service deployment plan that declares the realm (but gets the
SQLSecurityRealm class from its parent).  So the SQLSecurityRealm can't
see the driver classes in a child of it's own CL, and the
ThreadContextClassLoader does not appear to be set to something useful
when doStart is called on the GBean.
	I basically want to be able to call some static method to get the 
GBeanMBean for the current GBean implementation class, becasue then I 
could get the ClassLoader from it.  But any other suggestions would be 
appreciated too.  :)

Thanks,
	Aaron
