Modest saves cleartext password in his config!

Come on, it's not nice to not have a usable PIM (can't send email with GPE addressbook, other PIMs lacks in other points, and so on...) with Nxxx tablet, but storing cleartext passwords on a mobile device isn't acceptable!

PS:
What's also not nice in Modest: at fullscreen, there is no close button in mail view to go back to the listing view.
The nokias store plaintext passwords for ALL the IM accounts, network logins ( including WPA-Enterprise ), and more. So the fact that modest does it as well is not a real surprise.

It bugs me as well. I man how hard is it to use the mac address as a symmetric cypher?
