I'll stick with oldschool opensource updater.
Enjoy.
Get your facts straight before you go crazy.

Your login information is not stored in your config.wtf folder. At the very most, it only stores your account name.

I must have access to the WTF folder, period. There are certain addons that install files there, and not having access there would not let such addons be installed. If you would like to propose a secure solution that would not impact these addons, I am all ears.
