> I can think of several family members who might think "um why?" but not have any idea of the security implications. This is definitely the case. When presented with a dialog that prevents progression, many, many users will click whatever makes it "go away." However, when I see something like this, I get the heebie-jeebies. Apple's done a great job at locking down stuff, and when I have to provide accessibility or some other weirdness I know what I'm doing. I think if a successful exploit of this started spreading, Apple might add some exception for TextEdit. But in lieu of that, I can only imagine the amount of substantial, unprompted security problems are quite extensive.
