I have no idea yet. > (and later) a write-protected saved string is changeable after > load? or loaded blocks are then write-protected? hm. thinking.. If literal strings should be made "write-protected" (a better approach wuold be a sort of copy-on-modify for series, this has been discussed and was proposed mainly by Ladislav), then every string you are loading form your data will be made write-protected (because it is "literal"). > Is there a really great feature with the current behavior?

I would consider it as an addon to REBOL/Apache, but not for REBOL/Core. If you design a wiki, then you have to take care of the security issues... anyway, let's what does RT think about this.

Actually, looking at the way Exec handles libraries, devices etc., I think that a GC for REBOL should not be really complex, but it can be made quite simple. (And this is the thing about REBOL --- everything is simple by design; so if something looks unintuitive, it's just because simplicity is not always intuitive. :) [...] > Yust guessing.
