Not really, if the questions and answers are stored outwith the stack in
some sort of encoded document!

Obviously without the ability to password protect stacks the programmer
who wants to protect his/her data (i.e. stuff other than scripts) will 
have to
make an extra effort - but in computer-land all things are password 
protectable, and
all password protection is crackable . . .

So, quite frankly, why bother about this at all?
