That's a good point :) but it doesn't change the fact that it's uncommon.

Could you give me an example where this can be a security issue?
Since Liferea tries to open the links with the browser, afaik, so it

an upstream POW. However, if you were right and this would be a security
risk, the importance wouldn't be the same.
