Currently gwibber uses an embedded web browser to handle the
authorization, it doesn't see any passwords.  However, there are plans
to remove the gwibber accounts dialog completely and use a more system
wide solution, which should handle oauth much better.  I marked this as
won't fix, because the tool in question should be removed completely.
