Rationale? in spice-gtk there is a warning if you make use of it:
             g_warning("password may be visible in process listings");

It has been there since:
commit f4d19b3427b8f27fe9bda94c6120379d79b13547
Author: Tiziano Mueller <dev-zero@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Tue Jan 18 19:53:07 2011 +0100

    Use g_free instead of free in fail codepath as well.
    Warn if password is provided in the uri.
