[Bug 1362846] [NEW] stack parameters marked as hidden should use a password field

 

Public bug reported:

In the launch stack form, any heat template parameters that are marked
as hidden are presented as a regular input field, exactly the same as a
normal string field.

Given that hidden fields are marked as such due to their sensitive
nature, it would be better to use a password entry field for them.

How to reproduce:

1. Use the following template:

heat_template_version: 2013-05-23
parameters:
  password:
    type: string
    hidden: true

2. Note how in the Launch Stack form for the above template the
"password" field at the bottom shows characters as you type them.
