    Description

      OpenSSL allows the user to read the password from a number of places, including a file, environment variable, file descriptor, command line argument, or standard in. It would be nice for accumulo to do the same, to ease scripting while still not revealing password through ps or it's brethren.

      A logical way to implement this might be using a JCommander Custom Type for the password field.
