Howard M. Lewis Ship updated TAP5-87:
-------------------------------------
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
> Add a parameter to PasswordField component to populate the password value
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: TAP5-87
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-87
> Project: Tapestry 5
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 5.0.15
> Reporter: Alex Kotchnev
>
> Currently, the PasswordField component does not display it's value. Although
> this indeed represents best practices in handling passwords (e.g. if the
> password field did display its value although masked, it would still be
> visible in the source), the current behavior stumps new users and
> unnecessarily enforces a particular process (e.g. never display the password)
> or forces a user to split page containing the password field (e.g. what would
> have other in orderwise been a single page to create and update a value, now
> has to be two different pages) to avoid validation issues.
> The requested parameter (e.g. "displayValue") would contain a warning in bold
> that displaying the password value could be a security issue (and potentially
> log a warning). The default value of the parameter should be "false", that is
> it wouldn't display the password, unless explicitly enabled.
