Read the proposal, looks good, I did not take the time to review the patch
(in a hospital bed waiting for surgery, did not exactly feel like
reviewing a patch
today).

Sorry to perster about REST, but I too have a question.
Say I enable encrypted passwords, what do I get back from restconfig
for that store?
The rest subsystem indeed uses the xstream persister, with some customizations
to replace ids with atom links.

Another question is, say I need to add a new store, or change the password of
an existing store.
The rest client won't know how to encrypt the passwords, so it will post them
plain text... what will happen?

Cheers
Andrea
