It would be nice if we could acknowledge this rather than rewrite everything again and still fail.
- arthur_pryor 8y agosandboxing may not be perfect, but it provides an important layer of protection. it takes effort to break out of a sandbox. if the protections that sandboxing offered were so flimsy as to be a false sense of security, that would be an argument against sandboxing. but that does not seem to be the situation we're in.
