On the advancedconfig page, the password for the email account is visible in plain text. This creates a potentially severe security problem- if someone had access to my computer for just a few seconds, they could pull the password for my main email, and then have access to whatever else they wanted. (Go to bank site- use 'forgot password'- get password mailed to now no longer secure email, snag that, then start withdrawing money or whatever.)

Is this just a glitch because of the weird version, or is this a pervasive problem? Thanks!
