There are no new security issues with support for item= because it is a choice you make to include item= in your sitemap. Check out the demo configuration for an example. You could even implement a rotating display of security cameras by having a rule periodically update the item to point to the next camera in the list every X seconds. Of if a binding updates an item to be some dynamic URL only known via the binding, etc.

Hi, please can you point me in the right direction of where to find help or examples for this feature? - I have been scouring for days but cant find anything but I would like to proxy local webcam streams via OpenHab externally as my setup doesnt lend itself to making the cameras directly available externally - it sounds like this approach would work.

Thanks in advance.
