I'm open to suggestions, but I think the alternatives are:

o always require a password be typed in (except when pre-specified via
  encrypted_key or key).  This is the `default' behavior when it can't
  find a password, I believe.
  
o make it use kerberos passwords.  This makes xscreensaver more secure
  but is undesireable for other reasons (think `Trojan Horse').

Comments?
