well it turns out the functionality is already there in the code, but commented out :)
have a look at ~mailman/Mailman/Cgi/admindb.py, around line 273, and remove the
'##' in front of these three lines:

##    form.AddItem('Admin password: ')
##    form.AddItem(PasswordBox('adminpw'))
##    form.AddItem('<p>')

This way, you can manually type the password when submitting the pending posts...

I hope this is what you're looking for...

Ricardo.
