Just as a matter of theoretical curiosity: does the Firmware password prevent access to a hard drive that is being enslaved via Firewire Target mode?

According to http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106482 , the OF protection prevents the computer from being started in target disk mode. However, it doesn't prevent someone from pulling the hard disk out of the computer and accessing it from another machine.
