So, does this mean that security issues are causing the end of the Unix "everything is a file" philosophy?

  That hasn't really been true for a very long time, especially in the area of X11.

    X11 has always been a bit of a weird beast. And things like /proc are definitely in everything-is-a-file tradition, so it wasn't quite dead. (Maybe just pining for the fjords?)
