How do I get the currently logged on user's password for such things as single sign-on etc.?
You can't, and that's by design. Password is not stored; a hash is stored.
To support single signon, you need a single domain (for cookie propagation) and at least some shared tables.
You may use AES encryption module.http://drupal.org/project/aes
This module can provide you with readable passwords. You will be able to designate roles with the ability to view other users passwords in plain text.
