I understand the reasoning but I too dislike this. My simple solution, which could be a major security problem for you but is not for me is to set --default-cache-ttl to a really large number. The value of --default-cache-ttl is the time to 'remember' the pass phase in seconds. The default is 600 (10 minutes). There are 60 seconds in one minute and 60 minutes in one hour so 60x60=3600. So --default-cache-ttl 3600 would remember the password for one hour. Adjust the setting to fit your needs. -- David
