Now with Spring built-in with rails 4.1, I am curious about why the dev-team chose Spring over the others (Zeus and Spork).
Why did they choose Spring?

If you read the README from the v0.9 tag of Spring it should answer your question: https://github.com/rails/spring/tree/v0.0.9
The highlights appear to be:
implemented in pure Ruby
makes use of Rails' built-in code reloader
totally automatic (boots up in the background the first time you run a command)

According to a paper by Alvaro Muñoz and Oleksandr Mirosh spring security, from version 3.2.0 onwards, is vulnerable to LDAP Entry Poisoning.
See:

Is this still an issue on the latest version of spring-security? If so, how could we solve this?
Kind regards

What are the pros and cons of each?
I suggest you do more google on this topic because it is a very general topic. However these articles offer some comprehensive comparisons:

Does anyone know the reason why so many Ajax related tags are being deprecated from Grails? As far as I can tell, there is no replacement other than providing your own Javascript. They seemed like handy features. I'm just curious.
You should look at below link for AJAX tags deprecation.
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/grails-dev-discuss/4yesijtFSB4/PcMs8lF1_mEJ
They will however be moved to a plugin and you should be able to use it.
The main reason for deprecation is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unobtrusive_JavaScript
Hope this helps!

How can i prevent developers monkey patching over core types?
You can't prevent developers from monkey-patching your code (or any code, for that matter). This is Ruby!
Why would you want to do that anyway?
