The default installation is indeed insecure with respect to other local
users; you don't want to use TRUST auth method on a multi-user box. We
need to document that more prominently. But the default install is not
insecure w.r.t. to outside connections, because it doesn't allow any.
In particular, this advice is horsepucky:

because that will happen anyway.
