roda-sequel-stack (https://github.com/jeremyevans/roda-sequel-stack) supports and recommends freezing all core classes at runtime (after the application is loaded). This is how production Roda applications are commonly run. Freezing core classes is recommended to ensure that no libraries the application is using are modifying the core classes at runtime (they probably aren't, but how can you be sure without freezing them)?
----------------------------------------
Bug #21330: Namespace: Class and Module frozen status is not namespaced
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21330#change-113551
* Author: byroot (Jean Boussier)
* Status: Open
* Backport: 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
```ruby
File.write("/tmp/test.rb", <<~'RUBY')
Hash.freeze
RUBY
ns = Namespace.new
ns.require("/tmp/test.rb")
class Hash
def monkey_patch
end
end
```
Expected behavior:
Since the monkey patch is in a different namespace, I'd expect it to not impact code that is running in another namespace.
Actual behavior:
```
test.rb:9:in '<class:Hash>': can't modify frozen class: Hash (FrozenError)
```
The class is frozen globally, breaking code in other namespaces.
Is this by design, or does that mean the frozen status need to be moved in the `classext_t` as well?
