Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I would prefer not to have the word 'Joomla' appear in source code in order to try to avoid Joomla-specific hacks. I have already added <?php $this->setGenerator(null); ?> in the html just above the head tag.

Checking the head of a website with 4.3 RC installed (a updated dev site) in browser developer tools shows the following:

<script type="application/json" class="joomla-script-options new">{"joomla.jtext":{"MOD_FINDER_SEARCH_VALUE":"Search &hellip;"},"system.paths":{"root":"","rootFull":"https:\/\/mywebsite\/","base":"","baseFull":"https:\/\/mywebsite\/"},"csrf.token":"d5bd1b2fd4ce9969850b2db354bd1a65"}</script>

When I disabled the Search modules I'd added the code changed to this:

<script type="application/json" class="joomla-script-options new">{"joomla.jtext":{"ERROR":"Error","MESSAGE":"Message","NOTICE":"Notice","WARNING":"Warning","JCLOSE":"Close","JOK":"OK","JOPEN":"Open"},"system.paths":{"root":"","rootFull":"https:\/\/ssoj4.websiteprep.co.uk\/","base":"","baseFull":"https:\/\/ssoj4.websiteprep.co.uk\/"},"csrf.token":"d5bd1b2fd4ce9969850b2db354bd1a65"}</script>

Describe the solution you'd like

Change the class names to something not mentioning Joomla and, hopefully, joomla.jtext to something else.

That is

  1. nothing new in 4.3
  2. security by obscurity and is absolutely of no benefit at all

Hello,
The feature since Joomla 3.6 ?

Even if we rename the class, the CMS still will be very much recognisable.
I am closing the issue. The requested feature does not give us any benefits.
