As far as I understand (see gWidgetsWWW2 issue 22), Rook apps can be quite easily manipulated by other users on a multiuser system. This makes it possible to run arbitrary R code including system calls with the privileges of the user running the Rook app.
Would it be possible to add some basic security mechanism to prevent this?
