Package: wikipediafs
Version: 0.2-1
Severity: wishlist

I just tried wikipediafs and I am amazed! It works nicely with the
demonstration site mblondel.org and now I'd like to use it with the
"real" wikipedia. For this, I need my login and password. Reading the
documentation I see that both are stored *as plain text* in my home
directory, something I'd rather avoid.

Would it be possible, that wikipediafs asks for the username/password
at mount time (or when a wiki is accessed for the first time) instead
of storing the password in plain text on disc? This would be great,
especially on a multi user system (without a fine tuned SELinux
setup).
