The 2.6 security model is really local - that is, it works without  
you having to sign the JAR files.  Otherwise, it works just like 2.4  
security.

The workflow system is very generic, but it's currently mostly  
documented on javadoc level.  You can't change workflows without  
going to the metal, so this is mostly a non-issue to regular users.   
I hope that Andrew will write a feature article on that someday :-)
