Screenshots or it didn't happen :)

It's great that the taint log is now more verbose about tainted table fields. The next logical step would be to also include tainted local variables.

SecureActionButtonTemplate: add LearnTalents/RemoveTalent as actions

Currently, the LearnTalents and RemoveTalent API functions are protected, and only called from Blizzard_TalentUI, which is prone to getting tainted in annoying ways. These API functions should be...

The problem is that you'd have to guarantee that you never interact with any other FrameXML code path that ends up in UIDropDownMenu, which is probably an impossible requirement for most addons.

The demo code for your function prints 1 for me on live realms, rather than the 8 you advertise. Perhaps trying to build functions around unspecified behavior is a bad idea after all?
