It only pops up for *some* OS's, right ?

Got the pullrequest/source for that fix so can understand it a bit better?

 If it overrides the default for *all* secure password settings then it shouldn't go into any of our plugins meant
to be installed on top of Eclipse. No single plugin should be messing with that.

We could do it in the JBDS distro/setup since here we control the eclipse instance/setup.

But if it is done per some specific secure area then we could look at putting it into the base.
