Title:
  No option to display password in Wi-Fi connection dialog

Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in unity8 source package in Saucy:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  unity8 7.82+13.10.20131005-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu Saucy

  TEST CASE:
  1. Swipe from top of screen to show local Wi-Fi networks
  2. Select a local protected network and try to enter WPA key

  EXPECTED RESULT:
  The dialog includes an option to display password

  ACTUAL RESULT:
  There is no option to display the password that has been entered. This is very important as many WPA keys are complex strings and the user needs to verify the correct string has been entered.

  Not to be confused with bug 1237614, about showing individual
  characters as they are typed.

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking#phone-wifi>: "In the 'Other
  network' sheet ... Whenever there is a 'Password' field, it should be
  followed by a 'Show password' checkbox, unchecked by default."

  <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Networking#wifi-connecting-prompted>: "...a
  dialog should appear suggesting that you connect to wi-fi ... On both
  form factors, if the authentication fields include a 'Password' field,
  it should be followed by a 'Show password' checkbox, unchecked by
  default."
