It wold be possible, but you should not get a sense of security if  
this is done. One can still modify the blink code to print the  
password to a file after it was obtained from keychain. The only thing  
that gives you more security with the other applications on mac, is  
the fact that they are in binary form only and it is much more  
difficult to modify them to log the passwords once they get them from  
the keychain.
