[Bug 1537810] Re: When entering a password with the keyboard on an external screen, the letters are shown in plaintext
The text is shown clear because the timeout comes from QPA. So this is
more like a QPA than a toolkit bug.
** Also affects: qtubuntu (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Changed in: ubuntu-ui-toolkit (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Invalid

Bug description:
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 if input is coming
from a physical keyboard.
