FWIW, I would recommend you use a disposable 'install' password. However, there are 3 security modes System Designer can run in:

NONE - default, everything is open HTTP/FTP
NORMAL - http on all pages until passwords are in play, then HTTPS
SECURE - everything HTTPS, final image dropped in a secure .htaccess prodtected directory and only you get access user/pass on final page

Also, inside the preseed/autoyast/kickstart files, passwords are encrypted *unless* you're running the instance on a RH box as it's mkpassword doesn't support it, and I'm hesitant to include the perl module that does that in the code as it's not a perl base module and adds yet another dependency on running it.
