No. The most commonly sighted reasons for X not being in the secure side are: 1) Too easy to write code that opens up DOS attacks. 2) Buried in C code that can't easily have access control added. Regular expressions have both problems.

Does anyone know of a good reason why the list of Python built-in functions accessible from Python Scripts doesn't include reduce()? I personally find it rather useful, and its absence is irritating.
