I would be cool if Mason 2 was “secure by default”, i.e.

- Mandatory, easy-to-use input validation (e.g. Params::Validate)
- Default encoding/escaping (e.g. default_escape_flags).
- Don’t serve pages/components outside a defined whitelist.
- Secure out-of-the box authentication and session management.
- Do not disclose stack trace or source code by default.
- Promote secure coding standards.

I'm not sure it's the right thing to do, but it works nicely, and the templates (complex HTML form generation) are cleaner now.

I'm very enthusiastic about the fact that Mason will no longer use CHI for caching (had some big problems there) and about the controller mechanism. Are we going t o see this anytime soon, hope so because it sounds very good!
