I don't think velocity macros bring any security issue. However it makes sense that only admins (which have programming rights) are able to add a macro made available globally, and particularly in the Wysiwyg UI. Indeed it would be practical but not critical that you can test the macro before you make it available. It might be a bit complex to make this test feature automatic more than manual (try your macro in a page)
