	Bart Robinson <lomew@cs.utah.edu>:
	Bart> Here's a subr that clears the lossage log ...

    Based up the original poster's request, it seems reasonable that all
    packages that prompt for passwords of any kind should call
    clear-recent-keys after reading the password.  Better yet would be
    subrs to disable and enable adding keys to the recent-keys vector.

Thank you for fast response!
Since packages shoud use passwd.el to get the password secretly
(I use it), I propose that the new subr is used directly there. This
way no other code change is needed.

Hope everyone uses passwd.el, now that would be the time :-)

Thanks again. Will this be bindled in 20.3 or 20.4 ?
