I have a very specific scenario, where passwords are not extracted from the filename:
I drop an archive with an nzb file inside into the nzb folder to automatic detection: something {{password}}.nzb.rar
Sab unpacks it to something.nzb.
The password gets dropped.
Sab adds that nzb, the password is never added.
If the nzb file inside the archive has the name something {{password}}.nzb it works, but only then.

Proposed fix: look for the password after *and before* extracting the archive to get the nzb.

Interesting, sounds indeed like something that can be fixed.

Passwords at the start of the name are not supported.
The start is reserved for a category.
Example:
{{TV}}my show{{password}}.nzb

That's not his suggestion, he is saying that when he has an NZB inside and archive and the filename of this archive has the show{{password}}.nzb.rar notation but the NZB inside does not, it won't pick up the password.

True, but I've never seen this use case before.
Is this a specific indexer that does this?
