I'll chime in to completely agree with you, as you're getting all the encrypting-it-would-make-it-secure crowd.
They NOT the password, which makes it not show up on `strings` or some other standard scan for passwords. But if the attacker knows to go looking for passwords in backups, all they need is to find the backup, and then no amount of fancy expensive crypto will make it secure.
