It's still possible to partially implement it while keeping it safe by excluding sysex messages. Probably more than 90% of the end users will never need sysex messages so why bother?

maybe 10% is enticing for those who create botnets

  • I’m pretty sure GP meant why bother implementing sysex messages.

    Personally, I think that’s the solution. Provide access to the most common and safe features while disallowing the unsafe one. You’d still get far more functionality than you have now and only sacrifice a little in exchange for safety (vs not having any at all).
