Description

When you run the installer, admin password is stored in plain text in the answers file. It would be best if this wasn't stored in the answers file or cache. Perhaps if Kafo had some ability to blacklist parameters from being saved, string the password hashed, or encrypted (maybe hiera eyaml).
