All of which is useless when it just starts using big blocks of python instead. You need filesystem sandboxing for the python interpreter too.

What we need is a capabilities based security system. It could write all the python, asm, whatever it wants and it wouldn't matter at all if it was never given a reference to use something it shouldn't.
