Could you define "inspectable"? If you mean human understandable, as
opposed to obfuscated, I believe and hope that isn't true. Our security
should rest only on checks that the code starts with no privileges, and is
constrained to follow capability discipline. What kind of trojan horse do
you have in mind?
