Of course I have a firewall between wotaskd and the internet, it's just the principle—someone might have some bizarro configuration we haven't thought of, and this might bite them.

That does not follow at all.  Maybe we need to pause right here—you understand that my only objection is to _enabling it by default_, right?

Again, you seem to be mis-characterising my position as against _the feature_.  I'm not.  I just don't think it should be enabled by default.
