According to my expecience MS runtime doesn't do any type checks on the stack
(except explicit type checking opcodes) when SkipVerification is granted.

So when I said the assembly requrests SkipVerification I was wrong. It actually
requires SkipVerification and SecurityException should be thrown when
SkipVerification permission is not granted to the executing code (that requires
SkipVerification).

When SkipVerification is granted MS.NET simply avoids verification regardless
the code requires SkipVerification.

As a conclusion SkipVerification is a regular CAS permission that causes the
runtime to skip verification when granted and not a flag in the assembly to
instruct the runtime to skip verification.
