You can't expect magic, but I'd expect something along the lines of the
rules that servers are disallowed from serving non-public files, or
system files, or executing further things.  There'd have to be a list of
some types of files (context-wise) that were permissable.

But I think we'd need more contexts to protect things like personal
password files (you already own them, but you'd need some way to say
that these shouldn't be transmissable).  I can imagine the mess of
having to specifically organised some files to be publicly accessible.
