What would be the point of storing the encrypted password instead of the plaintext one?
As per our organization security policies, we can 't keep any passwords in plain text format.
I am working on postgres + pgbouncer setup, tested pgbouncer 1.14 where we have support to use encrypted password in userlist,txt file. I am surprised why pgpass is not supporting encrypted passwords.
Just use a long string of random letters, numbers, and symbols and say its encrypted...
