Even for a low security application the password a user chooses can be
high security. Many people have only a small number of passwords,
which they re-use across applications. For such a user not hiding the
password means a serious security risk. I wouldn't be surprised if
people would react by choosing another password, different from their
usual and more difficult to remember (which would result in even more
helpdesk calls!).
