Dear Flask, Please Fix Your “Secure” Cookies
It's a security issue. You're allowed to break things (or at least deprecate dangerous features)!

It's a security issue if people leak their secret key. At that point you have a huge problem anyways. Also breaking things assumes that afterwards you are left with an equally functioning system which I currently don't think I can guarantee.

No, I don't think "you have a huge problem anyways" is true, as there are a lot of other scenarios.
