Simple question, are the passwords for the login to the web server sent in cleartext?

Yes, but i think that can be changed, not that it's really necessary though imo.

it could be changed but it would need a change to the source. e.g. it cant be changed by the user. i also agree that it is not really necessary and would be to much work. however when ADC becomes popular users will already have a self signed certificate so that could be used to do https. but it will be a while and i dont think it should be a priority (personal opinion)

As the others I don't feel that changing this is a big priority.
