Bpipe's ability for sending email and instant messages via Google Talk and Gmail currently requires the user to enter their Google password into a bpipe.config file. This is insecure for many users. Since Google offers OAuth for these services, Bpipe should support that for users who are unable to put their passwords in plain text.
