We've got to the conclusion, that changing the settings is not really necessary by default. He instead suggested to leave a note above the line documenting that it *might* be dangerous and how to change it, for example: % The default settings are not secure when you process LaTeX files of % possibly doubtful origin. In this case, set openin_any = p. I've no clue if that will really help many people, however you could consider to modify the texmf.cnf in that way.
