I can't see how this would cause a security issue, all the html_includes define files are also in the language directories but then again that is why I ask, get community involvement, show a demo, get community requests and then package a plugin instead of just posting code that will result in a hundred more questions (seems my fingers got away from me).

So no, I don't see a security issue.

I have it functional except the coping of core files, I started with scratch code then I realized what I was doing was trying to recreate Define Pages Editor. Hmmm.....
Great idea !!

I had the same idea some time ago but are lacking the time to start with this project. I do not think there are any real security problems, since the define pages are doing the the same thing, except fir the copying part.
I do have a piece of code reading defines from a file and lining them up in a form, from another project.
