  34 <PRE>&gt;<i>Also, it would prevent an &quot;over the shoulder&quot; viewer of the password the
  35 </I>&gt;<i>ability to use it.  I keep an access mask on my nick ident for this very
  36 </I>&gt;<i>reason.  I think it makes some sense to have this on the channel founder as
  37 </I>&gt;<i>well (as an option).  Of course, if for some reason you are the founder and
  38 </I>&gt;<i>no longer have access to the mask you set for yourself, you could be sol
  39 </I>&gt;<i>also :P
  40 </I>
  41      The same issue applies for nicks, since you can identify regardless of
  42 whether you match an access mask or not--unless you set KILL IMMED on your
  43 nick, in which case, as you say, you're SOL.  The solution is to not let
  44 people watch you type your password.
