You're not doing any IPC? Perhaps I didn't get that, but because you've got sandboxing, if you're keeping the password entirely in your program memory you should be fine with it, modulo possible security flaws in the vm, etc...
If you're leaking the passwords out across an IPC barrier, you might want to be more careful.
