So, I was wondering:

How do you folks deal with the desire to automatically answer the question

"Are my copy pools up to date"

?


In order to automate the above-quoted query, it is necessary that the
logged-in ID have storage authority on the pools in question.  This makes it
(in my opinion) a dangerous ID to have its' password sitting around in
plaintext somewhere on disk.
