The NSS documentation reflects that a user application can define a password
callback function using the  PK11_SetPasswordFunc function.  That's fine,
and I did that. But what exactly happens to the password returned by my
callback function? Does NSS properly deletes it out of memory when no longer
needed? I think the answer is yes, but when exactly does NSS do that? On
NSS_shutdown?

*More importantly*, is there a way for me to delete the password out of NSS'
memory, and force NSS to call my callback function each and every time it
needs the password?
