It's got the best longer-term security in mind, as it means that we (or our users that build on top of Func) won't later have to deal with weird security issues because we've allowed Bobby Tables (http://xkcd.com/327/) through. Either base64 or url encoding the data before it hits the xmlrpc server seems like the right way to go. > I will throw together a proof of concept for this hopefully sometime > Monday.
