I say chuck it out since we are not even close to being correct in
this area. It gives a false sense of security. In fact, I wonder
what sort of audit MRI goes through to demonstrate that safe/taint is
working. As far as I can tell tainting is really tough to get right
and keep right.
The Drb mention below makes me think we need to come up with a
creative solution to replace it (using Java's security mechanism in
some way). I am hoping some enterprising community member who cares
about this will help find the true path...
Actually, I'm thinking the right path would be to promote
sandbox/javasand. We just need to polish it up and get some examples
out there on how to secure a real-world application with it. _eric's
irc bot is one example.
