I know it's rather late to reply to this patch, yet I believe it's worth stating:

1. mpd-service-type has gone through extensive refactoring, which makes this patch no longer apply.
2. This kind of change poses a problem, your credentials will get stored under /gnu/store, which is
world readable. Hardly the place you want to use to store secrets like credential data.

As such, the best course of action is to use a "include …" directive, which you can via the 'extra-options'
field, and point it at a file containing the credentials (which you have to provision manually).


Cheers,
Bruno
