Sorry, I missed the updates to this issue. The Workshop Credential includes a username and key for connecting to systems. This is a request to add the admin password used to log in to Controller to the password field of the credential. The purpose for this is so that the same credential can be used to connect to Windows systems that only accept username/password without needing additional credentials to be configured and maintained.

The second part of this request is to remove the plaintext username, password, and port that are added to the top level of the Workshop Inventory. These values can conflict with the credential configured in the Credential vault.
