Ronald,

You are absolutely right.  Reverting r80178 in the trunk restores the old behavior.

I think this can be closed as out of date, but I am giving it back to you to decide whether security implications are important enough to backport to 2.5.


Anthony,

Please open a separate issue for Tkinter if you want it considered.  It was rejected once already [msg102328],  but even if Tkinter behavior is deemed appropriate,  I think it should at least be documented.
