1.13 + * Historically, principals, certificates, and signed JARs were all linked
1.14 + * together in one big mess. When that mess was cleaned up, it turned out that
1.15 + * the principals used to store certificate information didn't overlap at all
1.16 + * with the principals used for security policy. So this interface was created
1.17 + * so that real principals wouldn't have to carry around all that baggage.
1.18 + *
1.19 + * The name here is totally a misnomer. This isn't a principal at all, and would
1.20 + * better be called nsICertificateHolder or something. But that would require
1.21 + * renaming some APIs, so let's just let this be for now.
