Web server password clear text in guisettings.xml

I have found that the password for the web server is stored in guisettings.xml in clear text:

Code:
<services>
    <webserver>true</webserver>
    <webserverpassword>password</webserverpassword>
    <webserverport default="true">8080</webserverport>
    <webserverusername>user</webserverusername>
</services>

The profile lock codes are encrypted in profiles.xml. Is there anyway for the web server passwords to also be encrypted? Or is this a feature request?
