 I've seen ~/.config/QuantumGIS/QGIS.conf is created as world-readable, and
 contains posgresql account passwords...

 Looking for other examples I've found vlc and transmission configs also
 having some passwords, and they are properly created with permissions
 0600.

 BTW, there's no appropriate Component value for this ticket
