By the way, recently I created my account on XWiki JIRA and it mailed me my
password in plain text, saying I could retrieve it at any moment again if I
wanted.
I didn't like that, it kind of showed me my password was being stored as
plain text...
Is this an issue of JIRA itself or some configuration of XWiki's JIRA? If
you can do anything to change it in your configuration, well, I don't know
if I can vote for such a thing, but here goes my +1. ;-)
If it's an issue of the JIRA platform and it can't be different, then maybe
putting some warnings as you do for the mailing list password? It would be
nice...
Best regards,
Tiago.

No. And that's a feature! :)
What you can do is reset it though.
