Hi,

I'd like to make gnome-screensaver use a black circle as the "invisible" character in password fields instead of an asterisk [1]? OS X and XP both do this.

Besides that I think it has some advantages:

  * It is cleaner (no edges)
  * It is easier to see (for a11y and on LCD screens in sunlight)
  * It isn't a character that is commonplace on most keyboards

The usability list seems to support this and some are surprised that we aren't using this already.

There is no i18n impact.

Thanks,
Jon
