Also, all firefox, chrome and safari extensions use javascript and you can read the secret keys in plain text. That include chromed bird, tweetbar and many others. And some of these are not even open source, they just happen to be written in javascript.

Our firefox add-on, Foxy140[1], fetches the consumer key and secret from our server when it starts for the first time. This enables us to change them if they are ever disabled.
