Running VM:Secure *with rules*, one can certainly use the passwords (since they are ignored) as comments.  All the passwords, for example we have:
* VM:Mgr 2.8 G0507 SP06 dated 08/11/2005 CDTAPE VMW1OF2 VMW2OF2        
MDISK B191 3390-3 3185  15 VMPP04 MR * VMR191 - Local files            
MDISK B1F6 3390-3  969  20 VMPP07 MR * VMRFIX - Between Rel (AIMAIC ETC
MDISK B192 3390-3  585  30 VMPP02 MR * VMR192 - AIC                    
MDISK B198 3390-3 1033  15 VMPP03 MR * HA_LCL - Local MODS              
MDISK B178 3390-3 3302   5 VMPP04 MR * VMRVML - VM:Spool AVMSI          

Similar to an earlier post,  we use the "*" as a reminder that these are comments, not real passwords (none are needed with rules).

Also, the first three tokens of the comments, including the '*' (those 3 that would be passwords) should be 8 or fewer characters.

I've found with VM:Secure that I can just put a comment line before the
MDISK statement(s) to document their use as necessary.
