/**
 * A PrivilegedAction for creating a new thread conveniently with an
 * AccessController.doPrivileged construct.
 *
 * All constructors allow the choice of the Runnable for the new
 * thread to execute, the name of the new thread (which will be
 * prefixed with "RMI "), and whether or not it will be a daemon
 * thread.
 *
 * The new thread may be created in the system thread group (the root
 * of the thread group tree) or an internally created non-system
 * thread group, as specified at construction of this class.
 *
 * The new thread will have the system class loader as its initial
 * context class loader (that is, its context class loader will NOT be
 * inherited from the current thread).
