The classes that implement TrustVerifier specify how they use those
context elements, if at all.  If I recall correctly, of the trust
verifier classes in the starter kit, only ProxyTrustVerifier uses
them: both for the constraints for the ProxyTrust.getProxyVerifier
remote invocation on the bootstrap proxy (must be specified), and the
UntrustedObjectSecurityContext for invoking methods on not-yet-trusted
classes (optional, defaults to a very restrictive security context).
