Replying to [comment:20 mikeperry]:
> We could also include RequestPolicy but leave it disabled until the user
selects "High Security", though this will be complicated because by
default its UI will be present and users will likely tweak it under lower
security modes (which will cause the interaction problems with the slider
that brade pointed out and cause most people to end up in the 'custom'
position).
Don't forget the need for thorough review of RequestPolicy code on an on-
going basis. That extension is not trivial and the expectations when using
the high security mode are ... high. That currently sounds to me like a
lot of additional work (not looking at the additional support requests or
weird bugs due to interaction with other extensions) for little gain.
