Yes the security aspect is important so I agree with the suggestion.
However, I think I did try something along these lines a while back
but it didn't work. Is this the right approach? With the phone on USB:

setprop service.adb.tcp.port 5555
                stop adbd
                start adbd

Rebooting the phone removed the property.

Thanks
