Comment:

 I had a chance to take a closer look at the iSEC patch with context, and
 it seemed to me that we should be blocking remote JAR loads before the
 load starts. I added a fixup commit to check the pref earlier (in
 nsJARChannel::AsyncOpen()) and pushed this for 4.5-alpha-4.

 Just in case there was an additional codepath to
 nsJARChannel::OnDownloadComplete() other than nsJARChannel::AsyncOpen(), I
 left the original iSEC check in too.
