I know debconf quite well because of my work on Debian Installer and that's 
only true if you ask a user to _input_ a password in a password field.

It is not true if you _display_ a password using a variable in a regular 
template. In that case the value of that variable will be included in the 
regular data file.

Note that you will also have to clear values in the debconf database for 
existing installs on upgrades from a broken version.

Cheers,
