Well, how about a proposal for something that does what you want but meets 
people's security concerns?

Umm... but didn't you add a lot of that? And the Showcase just copied what it 
found already. That's not proving it's a good way of doing things. There are 
lots of places in the code where changes have been made to accomodate the "!" 
notation, usually to the detriment of the codebase and leading to unexpected 
bugs later.
