Joerg Schaible reopened VFS-451:
--------------------------------
IMHO this change is actually wrong. The password parameter is typically used
for authentication if the password has to be sent as part of the URL. Now it is
abused as passphrase for an identity file.
We face with this solution two problems:
# the password is still used in the URL (!!!)
# the generation of the SftpClient fails always if you have multiple identities
and they do not all share the same passphrase
Therefore we should actually rollback this change and implement a solution as
proposed in VFS-283 and reuse that mechanism for FTPS.
