Yes I read the postings at standards-jep and you're right that the 
security can be improved.

As long as JEP-0025 is the only real documented protocol I prefere to 
implement this one. If I implement something else nobody will be able to 
use it because your extensions will be forgotten in some months. Also I 
couldn't wait to implement it because I need this software component 
very soon.

If there is an "agreement" over a new version of the polling protocol I 
will like to implement this enhancement.
