Is there such a thing as "Sandboxed Python"..?
Something where you can run a Python that is limited in what it can do.
You could do all sorts of cool things with a sandboxed Python:
You could turn a wiki into an RAD development platform. You just draw up your interface with WikiSyntax, write up a little bit of Python code, and bam- instant application.
- You could make a distributed code system, where not just resources, but functionality as well, can distribute safely over multiple computers.
A "Sandboxed Python" would let you permit or forbid modules, limit execution slices, permit or deny network traffic, constrain filesystem access to a particular directory (floated as "/"), etc., etc.,.
