Would obscuring the user's Google account password behind asterisks or the like as it is entered into the initial login dialog be a difficult change? I suppose that's not critical; I was simply surprised it was shown plainly on screen as I entered it.

My choices are:

Display asterisks instead of the characters actually entered.
Display characters as they are entered while editing otherwise display asterisks.

I like Maemo partial display-on-edit because on a small keyboard or OSK I am more likely to have typos and not know it.

I thought Qt's display-on-edit was going to be like Maemo but learned it is all-or-nothing (which is very bad when demonstrating software.

Thanks for the reminder, I should change this.
