Feature #8468: Remove $SAFE
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8468

Author: shugo (Shugo Maeda)

Priority: Normal

Target version: current: 2.1.0


Yesterday, at GitHub Tokyo drinkup (thanks, GitHub!), Matz agreed to remove the $SAFE == 4 feature from Ruby 2.1.
Shibata-san, a developer of tDiary, which is the only application using $SAFE == 4, also agreed to remove it, so today is a good day to say goodbye to $SAFE (at least level 4).

Furthermore, I'm wondering whether $SAFE should be removed entirely, or not.
Is there anyone using $SAFE?
