Well, I know a chief open source app server that has the password to
decrypt all passwords buried in its open source, and I know auditors
who are good if root cannot read passwords at first sight. The
reasoning behind that is that running java -jar someappserverlib.jar
-decrypt is a deliberate act that a god guy root does not do. So a
hidden password is a step better, even if not in the cryptographic
sense.
