Apparently you can't save shortcuts with passwords, or at least I haven't figured it out yet. There will certainly be a learning curve and maybe a few updates (now that it's in the App store) but I sure hope I can have shortcuts with passwords, or maybe I should just rethink that from a security stand point anyway.
