You get those for free with the "somecommand <(pass ...)"
 sytnax - output from pass is piped into a FIFO and the name of the FIFO
is passed to the program. Permissions in the FIFO should also be very tight.
The thing is, that doesn't help with programs expecting the password as
an argument. But in that case, the real problem lies with these
programs, as this is inherently insecure.
