I'm surprised that Python-in-IE works at all! I suspect that if we close
this loophole we'll find another and another and another. Python is not
a language designed from scratch to be sandboxed as Java and JavaScript
are. Constructing a strong sandbox is quite hard and requires careful
peer review. I doubt Python's sandbox technologies have got that level
of review and to be honest I would not trust them!
