Also, allow an external program to provide the password. For instance,
gnome-keyring-query or secret-tool in the libsecret package.
(http://www.gentoo-wiki.info/HOWTO_Use_gnome-keyring_to_store_SSH_passphrases ,
http://git.gnome.org/browse/libsecret).
This would allow secure, prompt-free access.
Maybe something like:
password = gnome-keyring-query get mypasswd |
...where the pipe indicates a command to run.
