Actually, it comes back to the user, not so much the coder. After I left a job a while back they hired some random as a replacement. The replacement had no Linux experience, so the next best thing for them was to tell the owner to move all software to a shared host (which they had had experience with before). Everything was written below a public root, but the shared host didn't allow this, so the next thing you saw was: domain.com/publicroot/index.php^ when the new developer took over. The funniest thing was that they had internal subdomains which ended up public as well, one with full customer listings.
