For those of you that don't know, /publish does almost the exact same thing as the "Open to LAN" functionality in your pause menu. The major difference between the two is that /publish can take a port as an argument (i.e. "/publish 25565" to open the world on port 25565) whereas Open to LAN picks one randomly. The ability to choose a port when opening means you can forward said port and this makes for the easiest server creation in the game.
My issue is that while "Open to LAN" can be done in any world regardless of cheat availability (and can even be used to enable cheats in world that have them disabled), /publish needs to have cheats enabled. by all means, /publish doesn't allow you to cheat by itself nor is it a cheat, so it should be allowed in non-cheat worlds.
