Sharing and downloading includes potentially confidential information in temp 
files

                 Key: MASHUP-603
                 URL: http://wso2.org/jira/browse/MASHUP-603
             Project: WSO2 Mashup Server
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Jonathan Marsh
         Assigned To: Keith Godwin Chapman
             Fix For: 1.0


When I share or download a mashup like storexml, the runtime temp files are 
downloaded as well, even though they are not necessary to run the mashup.  Say 
I used storexml to store passwords for a mashup, or if I used the file system 
directly within that mashup.  By downloading the mashup you not only get 
potentially large amounts of irrelevant garbage, but possibly confidential 
information or state information that could prevent the mashup from running in 
a fresh environment.

I propose checking for a folder called "_private" within the .resources folder 
and excluding it from the shared-mashup package.  I would adjust the storexml 
sample service, and perhaps others, to make use of this folder as appropriate.
