    10  * Historically, principals, certificates, and signed JARs were all linked

    11  * together in one big mess. When that mess was cleaned up, it turned out that

    12  * the principals used to store certificate information didn't overlap at all

    13  * with the principals used for security policy. So this interface was created

    14  * so that real principals wouldn't have to carry around all that baggage.

    15  *

    16  * The name here is totally a misnomer. This isn't a principal at all, and would

    17  * better be called nsICertificateHolder or something. But that would require

    18  * renaming some APIs, so let's just let this be for now.
