[theme-reviewers] Theme Reference Page Help

[Mario Peshev]

file_get_contents loads data from external resources. This could be
potentially dangerous because your theme users have no control over the
external resource and in case of the following one get hacked or poisoned in
some way, so are the themes of your users. That's why every external
operation could be risky due to the lack of information and protection
guarantee.
