That is an important concern.
Another importan concern: what are the moral implications of making
Emacs a platform for running nonfree Javascript code that users get
from web sites? It looks like that has in effect already been done;
is that so?
There should have been a discussion about _whether_ Emacs should
support that, and if so, how to include something comparable to
LibreJS.
