Request for enhancement: The database access module to store the database
password with the database properties and not prompt the user each session.

Note this means storage between sessions, OOo already retains the password
internally for the session.

Re-entering the password is only a small effort but makes using OOo just a bit
more awkward than it need be.  This should be an optional feature.  Access to
OOo is controlled by access to the system via the system's passwords and
physical security of my front door, for non secret data this is sufficient.  I
don't want to run a database without a password because the database is
available on the network for all users and possibly the outside World should my
firewall fail.

StarOffice 5.2 has this feature.
