It provides access to package-scoped things inside the support library which are not public.

All else being equal, particularly if you're doing a bunch of other
refactoring, you might consider changing the name of the class. I have
had a couple of people comment on this to me, wondering why we are
adding a Trojan horse to our apps. It's the sort of thing where the
class name raises more questions than it may be worth.

Just my 2 cents.

I would tend to agree with Mark on this one. The name change would be a wise move.

Ahh I quite like the name, maybe unlike some people I read the comments in the class before I asked questions..

Buuuut, I can see the issue (if) there was an exception and someone checked a stack trace could give your app a bad rep seeing TrojanHorse in the trace (or de-dex'ed for that matter). Rare I know.. but probably not a risk we should take...
