D17097: [scripting] Emit clientAdded for Wayland clients

strobach added a comment.

  Neither of the above would solve the issue.
  
  - The configuration options are stored in plaintext and are writable by any process.
  - The scripting interface is exposed on D-Bus, so any process can download and run any arbitrary script.
  
  The solution would be to store the plugins configuration encrypted (or in general to allow for encrypted config sections) and to remove potentially dangerous methods from the D-Bus interface.
  
  I do, however agree, that the scripting interface is currently virtually unusable on Wayland.
