[Bug 194472] Re: Entering password in Terminal gives no visual feedback

 

Any chance this will get fixed in Maverick?

Quite regularly (anywhere between a couple of days and every few weeks), we get a thread like this on the Ubuntu Forums:

Easier to count key clicks than asterisks if you're standing behind
someone. Lack of visual feedback offers no security advantage--just
comfort to *nix users who are used to it.
