Comment (by sambauers):

 As a trade-off, is it possible to create a place in the WP admin area
 where the secret key (either manual or auto-generated) could be displayed
 so that I can direct people to it when they need to match it in their
 bbPress installs? That's a little easier than getting them to edit their
 WP config file for integration with a "third-party".
