"the classloader used is in the parent domain"

But this isn't always the case?
Only for this piece:

      // Try the before attempt (e.g. from the parent)
      Loader loader = null;
      if (findInParent)
         loader = findBeforeLoader(name);
      if (loader != null)
         return loader;


But this could be cached -- if the policy permits it?

      // Next use any requesting classloader, this will look at everything not just what it exports
      if (classLoader != null)
      {
         if (trace)
            log.trace(this + " trying to load " + name + " from requesting " + classLoader);
         if (classLoader.getResourceLocally(name) != null)
            return classLoader.getLoader();
      }
