[Bug 1537810] [NEW] When entering a password with the keyboard on an external screen, the letters are shown in plaintext

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

This feature (the last character of a password is shown in plaintext for
a second) is quite nice for devices where the input method is likely to
produce mistakes (aka OSK) in combination of a small screen that can
only be seen by the user (phone, tablet).

In pocket desktop however, the fact that your passwords are being shown
cleartext on a big, external screen is quite nasty. The TextField
component should not use this feature is input is coming from a physical
keyboard.
