That's exactly why this feature is off-by-default (except for the
"fossil ui" command and the "fossil ui" command only binds to the
loop-back IP address so I figured that was probably safe enough).
Presumably you will only turn it on for the cases where you have taken
other steps to ensure it is safe.

Note also that it does not list all repos anywhere on your disk - but
only repos that are directly beneath the directory specified when
launched.

The current design only provides a list of repositories when you give
it the "/" url.  But it does list all repositories under the directory
tree, including those in nested subdirectories.
