Should we say anything on security?

MicroXML happens to close some of the more notorious security holes
associated with XML: the billion laughs attack from external entity
processing and CDATA injection.  Is it worth making a statement in the spec
that we believe its simplifications also improve security in dealing with
MicroXML on networks?

The idea of a MicroXML RFC has come up and in that case we'd have to make
some sort of statement on security, anyway.
