When we implement this kind of feature in Horde/IMP (saving info for multiple 
accounts), it will always be an option - off by default - to store the password 
(and even then, it'd be hashed against a value entered by the user, as 
described by several people). There will always be the option to enter your 
password as you access each account.

I have to say that I agree with this perspective.
