Besides the normal maintenance, most of the changes Enrico and myself are
contributing are driven by requirements from our customers (see streaming
support, encryption or the upcoming incremental block has mode).

As we don't see password support as a useful feature (there are better
alternatives avalable), it's unlikely that Pengutronix will implement this.
