I think you would have a lot of trouble convincing our National Board
that the measure is truly secure, but if you can then more power to you.
I am definitely for making such information readily accessible with
appropriate restriction to protect confidentiality.  If it means another
password be used by then so be it...  I don't think one should throw away
the idea just because someone feel they have too many passwords.  If
someone has too many passwords then they simply don't need to ever get
this one... hmmmm....  At least give people the option if possible.

Also, another option may be to create a database file which could be
transmited over the internet waves to another location...  The idea of
creating a huge directory on paper seems wasteful to moi.
