Title:
  [sdk] echo last character entered in password fields

Status in Ubuntu UX bugs:
  Fix Committed
Status in “qtubuntu” package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in “ubuntu-ui-toolkit” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  The new UI in build 89 uses the snap decision for connecting, and the password entry is different as there is no longer an option to see the password as it is entered.
  I had to enter my 23 character passphrase 3 times as I could not reliably hit the correct keys.
  All other modern interfaces show the characters. Best approach could be show the last character entered only, as most UIs do.

  -- SOLUTION --
  This bug applies to a number of use cases: passwords, PINs, passphrases, etc. Here's the desired solution:
