I propose to address this by not allowing the use of user-defined functions in generation expressions for now. The attached patch implements this. This assumes that all built-in functions are trustworthy, for this purpose, which seems likely true and likely desirable.
I think the feature is still useful like that, and this approach provides a path to add new functionality in the future that grows this set of allowed functions, for example by allowing some configurable set of "trusted" functions or whatever.
