I was suggesting that they don't have executable code at all, that they use static configuration. But it may not be possible within their problem domain, I don't know. I always prefer static solutions until dynamic becomes necessary.

Between code signing and sandboxing, this probably isn’t any more dangerous than the JS that Safari downloads and runs every time you open a webpage.
