'immediately' is effectively 'compile time', so you really can only
use it for constant expressions. You almost never want to use it.
I'm not the edittext guru, so I can't answer the rest of your question.

Hi all, I think i may have found a bug in the edittext component,
but i thought someone might show this to be correct behavior in a
way I don't yet see. The issue is setting password="true" on an
<edittext/> component. It doesn't seem like the password attribute
can be constrained. This example might also reveal a bug with
$immediately{} constraints wherein "classroot" and "parent" don't
exist when the constraint is evaluated.
Anyone have advice on how to make this work?
Test case: none of these fields (save the last hardcoded editext)
has password styling.
<canvas proxied="false" debug="true">
<debug/>
<class name="pwtest">
<attribute name="passwordB" type="boolean" value="true"/>
<attribute name="passwordS" type="string" value="true"/>
<attribute name="passwordE" type="expression" value="true"/>
<simplelayout axis="y"/>
<edittext password="${classroot.passwordB}"/>
<edittext password="${classroot.passwordS}"/>
<edittext password="${classroot.passwordE}"/>
<edittext password="$immediately{classroot.passwordB}"/>
<edittext password="$immediately{classroot.passwordS}"/>
<edittext password="$immediately{classroot.passwordE}"/>
<edittext password="$once{classroot.passwordB}"/>
<edittext password="$once{classroot.passwordS}"/>
<edittext password="$once{classroot.passwordE}"/>
<edittext password="true"/>
</class>
<pwtest/>
</canvas>
