 * I’ve had to resort to using the CSP-ANTS&ST plugin to include nonces for inline
   scripts, however, it has not been updated. But something like this plugin should
   be standard with WordPress, I believe. It has been recommended for years that
   websites include nonces for scripts for CSP. And yet, WordPress provides nothing.
   Shouldn’t this be built in?
 * The CSP-ANTS&ST plugin seems to work very well, and it is very simple. Why can’t
   WP do something even better to help with this very basic security need?

 * Please feel free to request that from the devs.
 * Follow the process at [https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/testing/reporting-bugs/](https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/testing/reporting-bugs/)
   but choose “Enhancement” for your report type.

 * The link goes to a place that explains how to report a “bug”… I wouldn’t really
   call this a bug, just a feature that should be included in the core WordPress.
   Where can I file a feature request like that? I looked, can’t find anything.

 * Yes, that’s why I added “but choose ‘Enhancement’ for your report type.”
 * Making a formal feature request is the same process as reporting a bug, but you
   choose “Enhancement” for the report type instead of “Bug”.
