Existing virtualenvs created by older virtualenvwrapper installations will
still vulnerable. virtualenvwrapper does not change permissions of already
existing environments. Maybe this could be done in the workon function. I
think this should be done in the upstream code. Doug Hellmann is open for
discussions and accepts patches. Do you have a good idea how to implement
this without a big performance penalty at every workon invocation?
