if this is true, then you can already do everything that [file] allows you
to do - and much more


yes, but [file] will be extremely useful in the "-nogui" and libpd contexts.

yes definitely. and much more.
i didn't write [file] to write exploits but to be useful.


BTW, and about the "exploits", I'm wondering if this would be feasible to
implement a safety lock callable from a libpd based application, that would
restrict the write permission (of every Pd object) to a given list of
directories.

we could probably restrict `sys_open` and friends.
however, externals are free to *not* use `sys_open` so that could be easily circumvented.
