Comment(by gk):

 Thanks Robert. I somehow missed that. Anyway, I wanted to add that the
 hooking method I mentioned above should protect as well against
 Components.lookupMethod() calls. See:
 [http://www.owasp.org/images/a/a3/Mario_Heiderich_OWASP_Sweden_Locking_the_throneroom.pdf]
 Slide 24. Alas, I was not able to prevent Fleischer's
 Components.lookupMethod() calls to unmask the screen values. But maybe I
 was just not smart enough...
