Title:
  Password field briefly displays characters when input using a keyboard

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When running Unity 8 on my classic desktop I have to enter my password
  in to, for example, the store login.

  If I am entering text using a real keyboard I still see the character
  displayed in clear as I am typing.  I don't think it should do that.

  Use-case:  I am making a screencast and entering a password.  By
  playing back the video The Baddies would be able to see each character
  I entered.
