      It would be great to be able to pass secrets to the VM startups scripts.

          I'm not sure if this is what mmitche intended, but in my case I'd find it very valuable to be able to bind existing Jenkins credentials (aka "secrets" – username/password, secret text, etc.) and use them within the initialization scripts. For example, when I provision my Windows agents, I need to establish a NuGet source that requires a username and password, and currently that password must be hard-coded into every initialization script field (for each template that needs it).

          We use "azure-vm-agents-plugin" against stock images on Azure and currently have to place private SSH keys in our init script which is not ideal. I would much prefer to use the Jenkins credentials store to store the data and reference it as a variable in my "Initialization Script".
