Re-enable the ability to store plaintext passwords
There are valid use cases where having to use a non-plaintext store is not practical, so outright disabling the functionality does more harm than good. Re-enabling this capability does not make it the default, rather just provides functionality that had existed for decades prior. Upstream has also discussed this[0] and are looking into[1] re-enabling the functionality along with some additional UX to help manage the credentials.
