+Subject: Security: remove support for $(...) in config keys with [$e] marker.
+
+Summary:
+It is very unclear at this point what a valid use case for this feature
+would possibly be. The old documentation only mentions $(hostname) as
+an example, which can be done with $HOSTNAME instead.
+
+Note that $(...) is still supported in Exec lines of desktop files,
+this does not require [$e] anyway (and actually works better without it,
+otherwise the $ signs need to be doubled to obey kconfig $e escaping rules...).
+
+Test Plan:
+ctest passes; various testcases with $(...) in desktop files,
+directory files, and config files, no longer execute commands.
