True . . . but then you may have to put in a password for the keychain
and depending on how things are setup then physical access to the
machine allows you to get into the keychain anyway. If you can do that
. . . then I don't see that the password in the script is any worse.
The way you're protecting the password is protecting against physical
access . . . but then if if you get physical access there pretty isn't
any such thing as computer security anyway.
