Topic: Support passwords in Nix & NixOS Currently persons who are making modules might not be aware that any password option would appear in a readable format for all users. This is a sad state as the only source of information of such limitation is the documentation.
We should make this state obvious by adding the "types.password", which would annotate any strings with the right of the user session. Then "nix" should prevent the files from ever being readable by the user of the same group. This should be applied to both the derivation file and the output of it.
