I personally disagree with this if you are using a reasonable filesystem with reasonable security norms. This would mean your home dir is not world-readable etc if you are on a multi-user system so no one should be able to find their way to your ~/.m2/ directory and be able to look at your settings.xml file in the first place. I don't believe the extra work of encrypting those strings is worth a whole lot. It is simply security theatre.
