             Summary: Can't add a password if the 'Save password' checkbox is 
not checked
                 Key: DIRSTUDIO-1198
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-1198
             Project: Directory Studio
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0-M14
            Reporter: Emmanuel Lecharny


The new version stores password in a keystore, which is very good from a 
security POV, compared to the previous version.

However, the UI could be improved, as it's impossible to type the password if 
the 'Save password' checkbox is not checked and the Password Keystore 
preference is configured to require the storage of passwords in a keystore.

Typically, I would expect that the password can be entered, but not stored at 
all, with a warning message informing you about it. That would be a 'temporary' 
password, usable until you quit Studio. (this is just a suggestion, the idea 
with this ticket is to open a discussion abiut this feature).
