My guess would be per session, but I've never used it.
Anything built from libmc ("embedded Metacard") could presumably always set
the property if need be, which would pretty much tackle the browser plugin
problem.
As far as helper applications, a standalone player could probably be made
that did the same thing and always set the secureMode property. Of course
anyone could get around this if they *wanted* to by using the ordinary
Metacard engine, but it would be a user-safe engine for those that want it.
I'd love to see someone find the time to create all of the delivery goodies
for Metacard: browser plugin, apache module, player application. I know there
are various pro/cons and reasons that they don't already exist, but they are
all very much technically feasible, and could go a long way towards a growing
anti-Java following.
Mozilla is open source, and so is Apache...
