Create a file called "console.cfg" in your tf/cfg folder
Whenever you want to use rcon or connect to a passworded server, type the command in "console.cfg" in notepad and then use "exec console" in TF2 after saving.
This way the sensitive info isn't transmitted on your stream.
You can combine multiple commands using semicolons.

I have bind for ever map and config on my server in my auto exec. This isn't the same as what you're saying, but if the streamer generally only plays on one server that they have rcon to, then this is way faster.
So for example, in my config
alias mge "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel mge_training_v7"
alias badlands "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel cp_badlands"
alias granary "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel cp_granary"
alias snakewater "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel cp_snakewater"
alias gullywash "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel cp_gullywash_final1"
alias viaduct "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel koth_pro_viaduct_rc3"
alias metalworks "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel cp_metalworks_rc3"
alias gpit "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel cp_gravelpit"
alias process "rcon_password pass; rcon changelevel cp_process_rc2"
If I want to play badlands, I just type badlands into console.
You can do the same with server configs (esea_push), or connecting to servers.

Or you can use OBS's game capture and never have to show your steam overlay or console. Those commands do save typing, I'm just too lazy to do it. Both are good ways to avoid things you don't want on stream.

pretty sure game capture only hides overlay.

rcon_password is still shown in the autocomplete when you type "rcon" in to do a command.

You should alias rcon_password in case you ever need to use a different server in the future, that way you don't have to replace 10 of them, just one :P

Yeah, easy enough. I only ever use my teams server though.

yea, actually what I use is something like myserverrcon, but you get the idea of having an alias so you don't have to type your pass

i used to know a guy who combined all the maps/rcon commands into his start menu, he had buttons for like every command ranging from kick opposite team to changing maps..it was cool but that was css so...

It could be done. I've seen a few people with "Connect to XYZ server" buttons in their HUDs.

just have a bind that makes your screen go black while you put the commands in
