You might want to soften the wording in
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/plperl-trusted.html
"There is no way to ..." is a stronger statement than can be justified.

Perhaps "There is no way provided to ...".
The docs for Safe http://search.cpan.org/~rgarcia/Safe-2.23/Safe.pm#WARNING
say "The authors make no warranty, implied or otherwise, about the
suitability of this software for safety or security purposes".



Well, we could put in similar weasel words I guess. But after all, Safe's very purpose is to provide a restricted execution environment, no?

cheers
