The intent here was just to streamline the existing behaviour of 
stuffing a global property into a domain attribute then pulling it out 
again in the illusion that it was in any way per-domain. We're still 
checking dev_is_untrusted() before making an actual decision, and it's 
not like we can't add more factors at that point if we want to.

Erm, this patch is based on that one, it's right there in the context :/

Thanks,
