If there are design flaws in Safe.pm, let me know. (Off-list, I think, as we're far from the purpose of ruby-talk there) Implementation problems are matters for a bug report or six to the perl5-porters list. If there are weaknesses in Ruby's model, or places it should be better, I'd like to know. I'm collecting security requirements in an attempt to design an overarching model that meets everyone's needs. Or is at least horribly paranoid about everything.
