Just a thought... can you stop a password from being displayed in the terminal if using Vim--copy it to the buffer directly? I use a GUI tool called Keepass and it allows me to copy the password to the clipboard without being displayed on screen, so that nobody can look over my shoulder.
I also use KeePassX (which is Linux version of MS Windows' KeePass. Very nice tool. You can use both password and/or file to encrypt its content, the file format can be read with both KeePass and KeePassX which might be useful if you intend to use it also on MS Windows. -- Regards, Michal R.
