Convert Plugin from LTS1 to LTS2 - "zowe config convert" of secure profile items

[BJostmeyer]

Hi,
I am in the process of changing our Plugin to comply to the new features in Zowe CLI LTS V2.

First time I used "zowe config convert" and see how my existing profile data are copied to the new zowe.config.json. After the conversion I wanted to change user and password for my old profiles and therefore issued the command "zowe config secure".

For my 3 old profiles I was prompted to specify a new password - but it did not ask me for the user, nor did it show me the user that was specified in my old profiles.
However for the zftp plugin (which I also had a profile for) I got a prompt for both - first it asked me for user and then for password.

I guess I figured out why this happened - in my _meta.yaml only password is defined as "secure: true" - not the user. Therefore only the password was in the credential store of V1 - and NOT the user.

Is there any advice how to proceed? Should I simply change my imperative.ts and also make user secure: true - but what about my migrating customers? I think it will confuse them, when they are prompted multiple times for passwords not knowing for which user... more than that - with "zowe config secure" they cannot change/specify both together but only passwords. I think it is unfortunate that we user and password are not strongly kept together as one "credential pair".

Has anybody an advice?
