if you have root access = game over... however, for typical user
network manager only gives access to the current user details.

one could argue this is why EAP-TLS with MAC pairing is ideal for this

however, IIRC the password can be hashed - the package comes with a
tool to provide suitable hash password instead
(Its NT has - so you can also generate it with iconv before pumping
into openssl with md4 output) -  the password is no longer
trivial plain text, takes a little more effort to get (but once
again...passwords? so old, so wrong ;-) )
