I meant that having a password on the certificate doesn't really help 
much once the box has been compromised to the point where an attacker 
has access to the certificate file. Once you get to that point you 
probably have bigger problems to worry about.

I'm yet to be convinced that having a password on the certificate aids 
security more than it hinders automated restarts.

Sorry I wasn't very clear earlier !
