Certainly nobody wants to run into the same security issues we had with
the AssetService lately (before adding the hash). It was no fun to read
my web.xml etc. using a browser...
For sure, crafting an object stream takes a while and if it's documented
and that easy using Hivemind, fine. But probably it's worth to have this
 as default (especially if it's that simple to implement as you
mentioned, Howard) in the framework right from the start, instead of
having the follow-up problems (if only dozends of emails on this list
;-) ) later.
