While I'm almost excited that you are tackling the problem of python's security, I find that your approach seems to break too many things: --- >>> from safelite import FileReader >>> import numeric >>> print numeric None >>> import i_hope_this_doesnt_exists >>> print i_hope_this_doesnt_exists None --- Versus: --- >>> import django >>> print django <module 'django' from '/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/django/__init__.pyc'> >>> import i_hope_this_doesnt_exists Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named i_hope_this_doesnt_exists --- ipython also gets broken after the import (nothing works after the import).
