SoundCloud.com is a commercial set up (premium subscription option 
available).  FTP  which is widely used, an understatement, and non 
proprietary is more relevant to us than this API is.   In my opinion.

Yes.  It would be a security problem.  To happen at all it would need to 
be in a plug in, and for more than just the security reason.

Should we help the soundcloud developers should they wish to write such 
a plug-in?  Why yes.  We should point them at CVS so they can see what 
our source code is and at our wiki documentation on the plug-in API.  If 
that is not enough we could improve that API documentation so that all 
our plug-in development is improved.  Beyond that, no.
