sorry if you took the message personally. Is your problem, not mine. I was 
not attacking you at all, rather saying that, in my opinion, software 
should fit for purpose and either prevent (when feasible) or warn about 
possible security holes. Just that. But not building additional security 
features beyond purpose (as I understood Richard was suggesting). So, 
basically the same that you are stating.

well, is ridiculous if you are google and have 2000 employees to create a 
couple of servlets. But if you have limited resources, and you are paying 
attention to other functionalities and working on beta, is not ridiculous. 
Is an assumed and controlled risk.

But do not blame others for your personal mistakes.

Can you please show me where I did that? I totally agree what you did here 
<https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/5853>. No more 
question here. Sorry, you have blamed yourself, I did not.
