An option to not strip the passwords would also be useful, although I
admit I wouldn't use it.  Given a decent password storage mechanism
(you all have one, right?), it's pretty much a little perl to put the
config file back to 'reality' before shoving it onto the router.

Or more caffeine, as suggested.
