Depends on symbol implementations and intended usage. For example Erlang symbols are deeply ingrained into language, and vm doesn't even garbage collects them, so creating symbols from user data is basically giving user 'crush vm' button. On the other hand, if symbols are treated as another data type, as string with some optimizations - no such problems shall arise |
