Summary: Gaim should encrypt saved passwords

Initial Comment:
Hello,

A french magazine (l'ordinateur individuel) made a really nice article about 
gaim, but they underlined that Gaim don't encrypt the saved passwords in it 
configuration file.

At home I tried this, under GNU/Linux, and I verified they are right, the 
password are in ~/.gaim/accounts.xml

I know that encrypt password is a cosmetic feature, because in order to keep im 
secure, I shouldn't save passwords, but I think you should do it if you can, 
because it is better for your publicity.

Thanks for all about gaim.
