I think it's a very Bad Idea(tm) to use FP extensions at all on a production
box, even if you only add them to websites which are internally accessible.
A better configuration is to use FP on a development/staging server, then
copy the content via FTP or some other means to your production box.

In my opinion, the level of access required by the FP extensions and the
numerous security modifications they make is enough to justify keeping them
off any box that will be in production or exposed to the Internet.
