What does your extension do (specifically, which methods does it use
that require it to be a mediator vs. regular code)?

The security architecture in ANTS2.0 is completely different from 1.x,
so there is no place for mediators to be installed.  The alternative
is to give the flow that does whatever your extension does the
appropriate privileges.

Also, ANTS2.x separates each flow into (effectively) a separate
loader, so accessing your extension from other ANTS applications will
be difficult --- this is something which needs a solution in ANTS2.x,
but we were waiting to see what folks were using extensions for.
