asterisk users - Jul 2003 - PHP API for Manager - Plaintext auth needed?

Quick question: My PHP script is now able to connect to the manager port
and successfully authenticate using MD5. I would strongly prefer not to
do plaintext authentication at all. Would anyone object to plaintext 
authentication being left out?

I also dislike plaintext, but the vast majority of users will probably
run the PHP script on the * system itself, so plaintext won't really
hurt.  Hell, I doubt that most will even bother to run the scripts on a
secure server.

I'd say set the default to md5, but leave plaintext as an option.
