I wouldn't dare run some of the web plugins without them being very very
constrained by a security tool. I'm not sure I trust some of the image
libraries either although the google audit work seems to be slowly
improving it.

Unfortunately application library security has taken a nasty turn for the
worse because any library exploit in a library also used on the iphone is
now being sat on by jailbreakers rather than reported.
