It would be great to have a "Secret" parameter type, for storing sensitive information such as API passwords.
A submitted secret needs to be securely encoded using a secure crypt algorithm. A salt should be mandatory and provided either by Settings (settings.php) or alternatively by an environment variable. When implementing a service for that, it could just directly support both. The "Secret" parameter type must only be available when the salt is available.
Consider either a symmetric (one key for encoding and decoding) or asymmetric (two keys, one for encoding, once for decoding) way of encryption.
