The thing for me is that even if we rollback, lock things down, and start building again... isn't it all just going to be for nothing? Because once 1.7.2 is up to date w/ mods/security/etc., won't we be going back to that? So this is really just a temporary fix, right?
Makes it hard to want to put a months worth of work into something, then we might go back to 1.7.2
