Accept password as a command line argument

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Enhancement: I want to mount volumes with scripts (i.e. no human
interaction.) It would be nice to be able to pass the password in as part
of the original `sshfs` command.

Actual command:
> sshfs -p 9876 user@example.com:/home/user ~/remote-mount

This would be better:
> sshfs -p 9876 -P XXXXXX user@example.com:/home/user ~/remote-mount

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am using the 1.7 version of MacFUSE and am running the Mac OS X 10.5.5

Please provide any additional information below.
The exact format of how the password is passed is not important, the goal
is to give sshfs all the information it needs to connect so that a prompt
for the password is avoided.

Fantastic software, thankS~!

Please repost your question (and post questions like this in general) in the 
MacFUSE discussion forum:

http://groups.google.com/group/macfuse

I'd like to keep this section limited to actual bugs in supported MacFUSE 
software.

What you're talking about is not a bug (nor even a missing feature--why not use 
key-based authentication or 
one of the convenience "tricks" people have devised?), and the software in 
question (sshfs) is an 
*unsupported* add-on to core MacFUSE software. Note the "*Unsupported*" in the 
download link for sshfs: http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/downloads/list

I do have ssh keys set up for the host I am connecting to with SSHFS. SSHFS 
does not
seem to respect key-based auth, and I have not found an option for this either.

What are the "tricks" you mentioned?
