How do you think?
Historically the problem with gnuplot was the fact that is has not any
sandboxing scheme.
So it should be possible to send you a gnuplot file that erases your home area
if you run gnuplot over it.
Example (this is specific to unix/linux but it can be adapted to other
systems):
system("rm -rf ~")
Ouch.
Could this be solved by having LyX refusing to use gnuplot file
containing the "system" command? Or is it much more complicated?
