Brad, I agree with the overall drawbacks of having a version system, but the only alternative is to have a converting layer on top of the regular API that will change things on the fly if the request had a different version number. This would solve the hypothetical security issue - only one API to check, but will more likely cause stability problems - it is much easier to mess up in the additional layer than in the specific module that understands the change.
Please do expand on the list of pros.
