Could you define the word "token"? I have thought that it is an opaque
value which connects unencrypted data to encrypted data. However, it
seems not.

Though I can't say anything without the detail of your proposal, I feel
you are oversimplifying.
Anyway I will be happy if:
- Gnus does not ask password when connecting to password-less services
- Gnus does not store my passwords in plain text files by default
- Gnus can hide server or user names (or other attributes) if necessary
Otherwise, no persistent password store is much better for me...
