Well, the setting is for the *config file*, not the authentication data.
I assumed you had some passwords in your config file for you proxy.

No, that's not a security hole. You can search the Subversion mailing
list for "passwords" "in plain text" and you will find all the

Also, you must be still using Win2k (I'd consider that the bigger
security hole), otherwise you would notice that the auth data is written
encrypted to disk.
