Improvement for password storage #19

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

To use a wallet native system (in Ubuntu is Keyring, in Kubuntu is KWallet, and 
in Mac is Keychain). This is way more elegant and secure method for handling 
user passwords. If you really dont want the trouble, maybe just set the config 
file with chmod 600, and INFORM the user about the risks that is his 
responsibility. Some famous apps from early ages like mutt do this. 
Just a thought!
