however, I do not need to do it nor will I have temper tantrums and jibes at the Staff for not succombing to my wants and needs...

what are you talking about or referring to? does that really need to be in your post?

The difficulties come from many things, but not limited to:

a.) The coder thinking a particular staff member is "picking on them" because they don't get on well with the particular staff member that located a Security flaw with their modification
b.) The coder being absent for an announced amount of time, and a Staff member fixing their code without their authorisation or contact to say that they could (Not that we need it, just that some people object to you trying to help them)
c.) Problems arising from us fixing the Security issue as to whether the coder can code properly and therefore potential risks such as the coder being boycotted or openly attacked by disgruntled or doubtful members

Three scenarios not having the modifications on vBulletin.org will solve

all 3 of those scenarios already exist here at .org, do they not?
