if tarball or path is user input then they could be used to inject tar command options.

like it. rss is so simple and cool. problems:

* how to make it easier for users to start using feed readers

* how to make it easier to subscribe to feeds

* how to help users discover new content

Can we get some examples of this? (not implying otherwise)

> Maybe it was a reaction against the Java-style reverse DNS notation

I suspect it was less a reaction against anything and more just following the norms established by most other package managers. NPM, PyPI, RubyGems, Elixir's Hex, Haskell's Cabal... I'm having a hard time thinking of a non-Java package manager that was around at the time Rust came out that didn't have a single, global namespace. Some have tried to fix that since then, but it was just the way package managers worked in 2014/2015.
