I do not actively use this feature, however, removing it seems
excessive.  IIUC, it's a useful feature in situations when the tag may
require deterministic, yet non-trivial manipulation.  The current
mechanism of restricting this to functions marked safe by user seems
sufficient.

Am I missing something?  Is the threat model such that it can only be
adequately addressed by removing the feature altogether?
