Description
Currently, salesforce_api_password & salesforce_api_token are currently saved as plain text passwords in the variable table. Is it possible to hash those values?

#1
Actually, I was just about to request this hashing myself (preferably a strong/secure hash). I imagine this is a real quickie feature request, best done by JoshK/Aaron/Bevan.
However, if not, I could have a different "credential encryption module" (that I had produced for the Ubercart Authorize.net CIM module) re-purposed into an add-on for this module. This add-on module would be called "Salesforce API Encryption" or something. Having a whole separate little module for this feature might be overkill-- but if you decide you want this help, I will have it done asap.
#2
Patches welcome as well as integration with other modules providing this API
