I'm sure that Tab didn't mean technically "No", he just meant no to
types like Juan, who doesn't present a valid coverstory for their
need to open a protected file. In those cases it is apparently
considered consensus that we pretend that the protection scheme
actually work.
I don't agree with that consensus, believing it can do more harm than
good, in the case that the naive developer believes he's protected
and the cynical hacker finds out he's not anyway.
As is the case on these lists, if you tout a touching story about a
classroom full of little students with crying eyes, someone will
spill the beans and show you how to get to anything but the source
code.
