[GRASS5] Feature-Request: Prompt for PostGIS-connection

[Stephan Holl]

Dear Developers,

during using PostGIS in GRASS5.7 I stumbled over a clear password entry
using module v.format and PostGIS.
My Postgres-User who acts with PostGIS and GRASS has a Password and in
order to make this connection work I have to enter my passwd in
cleartext.

Would that be possible to prompt for a password, if one is needed when
trying to connect  and not exporting it via gg.gisnev.
g.gisenv store=mapset set=GV_FORMAT=POSTGIS
g.gisenv store=mapset
set=GV_PGIS_DATABASE=host=192.168.0.90,dbname=postgis,user=grassuser,pa
ssword=xxx

Thanks
	Stephan
