Debate: handling unpublished items

My view: 
There is a bug in component-creator that allows an unprivileged user access to items that are unpublished and trashed, through the direct link ( similar to http://mysite.no?option=com_mycomponent&view=myview&id=15 ). I regard this a serious issue, and has reported the bug to component-creator. However, Victor, handling the bug report at component-creator, means that the item should be available through the direct link, but not listed in category-listing or similar. He suggested I post the dispute to the forum, so here we are.

It should be noted that all core components in joomla deny unprivileged users to access unpublished and trashed items. 

Everyone in support of not allowing any users to view your trashed or unpublished items, raise your hands!

I know CC wants to build their components to be aligned with how core components do it.  

It is my understanding that (in core components) the front-end model will not serve up an article if it is not either published or archived.  Here is code from the article model that builds the SQL for retrieving the requested article:Obviously, if a person has permission to edit, delete, or change state on this item, then this person should be able to see the item (at least backend, perhaps front-end as well).  But it seems to me that if an item is not either published or archived, then any front-end link to this item should not display the article (unless it is for the user to edit it), and the model should return an error message similar to how that core components do:
