There was no way to know if iSkoot would care or not, many application developers could have cared less whether or not such security risks exist. Exposing such risks either gives the developers a kick in the butt to fix it or warns users they are taking a risk, either way we all benefit. Many security risks have been discovered in Windows and are often widely publicized even sensationalized by the media. The benefits outweigh the risk in this case I think you are right to disclose the security risk.
