Not to say that running the qooxdoo app in the iframe leads to some
security strangeness e.g. special work is needed to allow cross domain
requests and accessing file APIs, native drag&drop etc. gets a lot
harder. What's really needed here is to get qooxdoo running inside the
application sandbox without any iframe.

This basically means one is not allowed to do any "eval" or "new
Function" anymore which currently mostly affects the property system
and the IO layer.

Cheers,
Sebastian

Throughout its 18-year history, RSA Conference consistently attracts the
world's best and brightest in the field, creating opportunities for Conference
attendees to learn about information security's most important issues through
interactions with peers, luminaries and emerging and established companies.
