Adding plain text password in B2B mode

[Esoterick]

 

Hello,
We are making a B2B shop based on PS 1.6.
We know it's a bad thing to do, but the customer wants the password to be stored in plain text.
Indeed, the plain text password must be sent by email on account creation AND on password recovery request.
We tried to dissuade them to adopt such behaviors, we failed... It's rooted in their way of doing business, passwords are printed on every invoice they are issuing.
How can I do that? Is it doable without hacking any core files? Is there any crypto library in PS to encrypt / decrypt passwords?
Regards.

Because of the obvious lack of security. We will certainly use a secure Web service between PrestaShop and the customer business application to retrieve the plain text password when it's needed. 

It seems to be a good compromise. The only down side is that weak password are used.
