Perforce Passwords displayed as clear text

When showing the "commandline constructed for call" of perforce action steps...

it would be a good idea to mask out the password with asterisks, as otherwise the log files and/or screen output can easily reveal the sensitive perforce password information!

eg the output shows:

p4 -cGRIBBLE_WAGON_MAIN -pperforce:1666 -uryan.gribble -Ppassword change -i


I am using temporary macros to store the password, and i accept that whilst the script is running, someone could look in the macros list and see the password... but once ive shut down VBPro someone could still look in the logfile. (yes i know the logfile could be deleted, but we want to keep them on hand, and infact email it to a list of people, who shouldnt all have access to the masterbuild password for perforce!).
