It is an issue in a managed environment such as on corporation or school PCs.

You're right, apparently amongst other things there are some hooks that are ran during the package's lifecycle in something that is called the control archive.

Actually it's just an archive. It can be easily extracted using dpkg -x *.deb ~/.local for example.

It is the stream itself that is buffered, so the terminal does not handle the contents until the stream is flushed.

Eval is bad for security boundaries and the string based approach is a pain to develop and maintain. An alternative that is equally bad for security but better for development would be dynamic imports using importlib.

If you want to support custom scripts while enforcing security boundaries, you could use an embeddable interpreter like lua, or create your own.
