I don't like this design decision... Are there at least restrictions on what the script can do?
The same applies to py files (blame python installer). That about bat or exe files? They have the same "power of potential destruction", I don't see why this is suddenly a problem now. Or do you click on every exe file send by email to you?

Edit:
If your vpy is associated with an editor, why would this be a bad thing? It is only executed only if you run it.
