No, I disagree entirely. Actually it's fine if it's a VFS URL. We've already
gotten past that problem - we can specify VFS URLs in the security policy file now without
any problems.
The problem now is that vfsmemory URLs are not predictable. And in fact -any- VFS URL
type might not have a corresponding "real" URL; I don't think this is a
reliable solution.
I think the best solution is to have predictable/repeatable names for VFS URLs. I
don't think using a UUID is really useful in practice anyway. Why not allow a name to
be assigned to vfsmemory URLs? Then one could simply put the appropriate vfsmemory URL in
the security policy file. If security is a concern, one could simply introduce a
permission that is necessary in order to create a vfsmemory URL with a given name.
