Certainly - it just didn't particularly matter to me, and I haven't taken 
the time to research it yet.  It did occur to me when I read your other 
post on this subject that making everything read-only but not writable 
might be a more sensible default since it's not like PovRay is running as a 
server or in any way revealing data to others.  And this would still 
protect against malicious scripts which try to trample data.  Anyway, just 
my 2 cents.
