Re: [Zope-dev] uuid.UUID as a rock in zope.security

Hi there, One fundamental question about this that I have is why we want to protect the user against such loopholes anyway? Isn't zope.security a protection system against *accidental* mistakes in building secure applications? I.e. I call a method and then I find out I have no such access. Do we really need to protect the developer against more arcane workarounds? If I *want* to work around the security system deliberately I can simply remove the security proxy and be done with it. It's not like the system is protecting against this anyway. Protecting against workarounds is useful if you allow through the web manipulation of code itself. But who is actually doing this?
