Thanks! That is the sort of stuff I was asking about.

It looks like it's an after thought but at least on their mind now, which is very fair with respect to Bloomberg's wants/needs. It'd be nice if they had a bit of a warning about using this until it has some basic auth(n) and TLS since they're releasing it to the public. I think it is, relativley speaking, rude to release insecure networked software without giving users a notice as to what sorts of insecurity is at least known/expected.
