Of course :) But the problem is that core modification would be necessary to make the security "air tight". And mw's intended to be as open as possible. So you can write a core hack to do it or you can write an extension that does it for you but then you are basically stuck with the current version (or the ones that are still backward compatible with your changes). This includes security fixes too. My conclusion is that maintaining the security would be much harder than just get a proper CMS and modify that to have the features you need from mw.
