I don't get why having a getter "defeats the purpose". Just because you 
have a getter does not mean there's a value to get.
You could also have a setPassword "service method" instead (you can 
probably use your existing User#setPassword using an 
InstanceRequest<UserProxy,Void> setPassword(String password) method)
