"A user complained, so we'd rather use something insecure."

This is not the correct mindset to develop security software!

Also, the new way they solve it ignores the proposal to use git submodules 
entirely, not even stating why they don't want to use git submodules. But that 
at least is not a security problem, so I don't have strong feeling about this 
:).
