> The security document indicates the Dojo project is already looking into the issue, so some coordination is probably in order, but I wanted to add an issue to track progress and thinking.
> The reccomendation to include the session cookie if available in all JSON requests, and validate it on the server, is something Tapestry could incorporate easily.  If there is a JSESSIONID cookie on the page generating the request, use it, otherwise send a "no-session" value.  The server would then check to see if there really was no session, or if the parameter matched the current request's sesison.
> Also, the client-side suggestion of munging the response JS so it needs modification before execution is a good one.  This is probably where Dojo changes would fit in.  Personally, I like the infinite while loop suggestion, but that's just spite ;-)
