Wow I can't believe some people
Luckily I remember 99% passwords without the need of writing down anything.

Quite a number of bitcoins have been lost already, deflation^2.

I'll be interested in two things, and I'll make some of my own estimates for the fun of it:

1)  Ratio of BTC lost due to forgotten passphrase vs. those to stolen wallet.dat's:
1e) 10/1

2)  First post here from someone needing to know how to get their coins from an encrypted wallet due to forgetting their passphrase:
2e) 3 days

Don't get me wrong...I think this is good an necessary work and I thank the dev team for it and all the other work.  But I do anticipate the encryption contributing to the 'deflationary' nature of the currency


 edit:  Note the date.  This comment was made in association with the release of 0.4-ish.

There's a possibility it can be restored. Hopefully a person who gives access to wallet sources can make sure that a person who unlocks the wallet won't take everything as a reward.

There is a secure way to do this. He can provide just an empty private key (or better yet one with a low value).
