Would it be possible to have the alignments portion of this spell modified a bit?
1) allow this portion to be optional. To allow the caster to decide that they do not want to include it in the spell.
2) To allow the caster to allow certain items act as the "password", such as a ring or badge? Each item would need to be attuned to the ward, for a similar price as including a password. Items could be attuned at a later date by the original caster, or a caster from the same god (perhaps even a lower level caster).
This would help a bit with the scry/teleport problem that some have identified.

I agree to your point 2 -- I used a "ward key" version of this spell (and 'Repulsion' plus 'Glyph of Warding') in my latest adventure, because I felt that you should be able to define certain items/symbols being able to bypass such a spell.
