I was rather hoping that the above message would lead to more of a discussion about the request. That doesn't appear to have happened so far, so some specific questions: - what is the real-world impact of the security issue? - what is the effect of the changes on libmojolicious-perl's several reverse-dependencies? (The upstream changelog mentions that the security fix necessitated changing the way that existing methods operate.)
