Hum, maybe. I would be a really obscure setting, though. Is there no
default other than "Password: "? Adding/hardcoding other defaults is
definitely an option. Everybody else who deviates from that is basically
on their own -- so a parameter would make sense.

Then again, how much sense does that make as a default parameter?
Suppose you have multiple sessions and want to connect to different
servers -- which also happen to have different prompts. A global command
line parameter would make connecting to one prompt type possible (only.)

This probably should be a per-session preference, if anything. But the
use case is so special that I'm unsure whether it makes sense as a
general setting in the client or not...
