then go for it.
I would like to add just one thing: any system that I will ever
implement for passing passwords to IB will rely on custom code, so
personally I don't really care much about how many different behaviours
the PasswordStorage will allow. If I'm not mistaken, it is going to be
used both at design time and at run time; in the latter case, a couple
of event handlers (or a reference property to hook to a user defined
object, or an interface, etc.) to implement completely custom behaviour
would be a nice and cheap addition.
Don't know if an additional value is required to indicate that one's
going custom; probably Geoff's psNone would do.

What would you expect? Give them a finger and they'll take an arm and a
leg (poorly translated). ;-)
