It would be very nice if there was an option to specify a password via the
command line when connecting to an rsync repository, which would make
integrating rsync into scripts much easier. Currently you need to specify a
password file that holds the passwords or set the RSYNC_PASSWORD variable. It
would be easier if one could just use options like:
  --password=somepassword --user=someuser
or being able to say:
  rsync://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:port/src/ destination
