No.  I think this is a big issue.  Just do a:

/servlet/jetspeed/portlet/JavaRuntimePortlet and you will get the users
JVM info :(

The security fix will be to require Turbine authentication on the Admin
screen.  If the portlet requires administration access I am going to do
a lookup to make sure they are in the Turbine admin role.  This will
require user authentication BTW.
