your point about encrypting the on-disk userfile as being a nuisance (or just futile) are true. i made the mistake of ignoring the advice "just because you can, doesn't mean you should." which does apply in this case.
in fact, you don't even need to attack the encryption itself, as you could use a debugger to watch the calls between ioftpd and the UserModule, which would give you complete access to the information as soon as ioftpd initialized.
regardless, i think the ability to write a UserModule hook, regardless of the utility for this particular case, is good information to have. the example on this thread of ioShareDB being a perfect example of something that would never be in core ioftpd but could still be useful nonetheless.
