Daniel Le Berre updated WW-4891:
--------------------------------
    Description: 
I noticed that the debug tag displays the content of the value stack 
independently of the value of devMode.

I wonder if it would not be more secure to do not display anything if 
devMode=false.

I can imagine a developer forgetting to remove such kind of debug tags before 
the app goes to production. Making it silent in production mode would reduce 
the risk to display sensitive data.
