Well, I'm not sure who would see the call.

In radio, this is a script that would be sitting on your machine, and would be run before the page is uplaoded to the "cloud" or wherever your site lives. The result of the script would be in the web page, not the script itself: in other words, nobody sees your password.

In fact, the only time I think anybody would see the password is when you're intentionally sharing copies of your script. In that case, you have to be careful to remove your password before sharing the script with anyone... but that's true whenever you share a script.

It's possible that I don't understand the specific situation you're thinking about. :-)
