Errm...wasn't (something like) this discussed just recently and
deemed a massive security hole? If I download a program, I don't want to
have to inspect every line of source to make that it won't download some
bizarre Trojaned module (or even an object instantiated from that module,
which is worse because it leaves fewer traces by not writing to disk) from
some far corner of Script Kiddie Land.
