    Actually, the registration web page is explicit about this:
    "You may enter a privacy password below. This provides only mild
    security, but
    should prevent others from messing with your subscription. Do not use a
    valuable password as it will occasionally be emailed back to you in
    cleartext."

Does Trac have a notice like this?

No. We do not mail Trac passwords. We do not have them at all -- only the hash. The only reason we have passwords at all for Trac is to prevent spam via the mailing lists. All posting in Trac is public.
