Comment (by ubernostrum):

 I feel like there are some tricky issues here, especially with the example
 given in the documentation -- the part where if a URL in
 REDIRECT_WHITELIST_URLS is a prefix of the URL being redirected to
 especially scares me, because it creates the possibility of breaking out
 of this feature by finding an open redirect on *that* host.
