As for "server" accounts, why not have a "hardlinked" server account to ones
main account. like main login is then "mysuperawsomeusername" and the server
login "mysuperawsomeusername.server" or w/e that only can be used to
download/update/run servers, and can have multiple logins. With that one having
a separate password, any security concerns on the accounts is mitigated, as
that cannot be abused, and server owners can still use normally their account
in the client.
The creation of such "hardlinked" account can be arranged via a steam form if
logged on on steam etc, so naming conflicts can be solved right away.
