That's right -- this is a feature that prevents password sniffing.
As the status on report zqkatwcb indicates, this is not a bug.
What you need to do is file a feature request for some other way to
tell whether Caps Lock is down when a password field has the focus.
Or, perhaps the best solution IMHO, simply make your passwords case-
insensitive. I don't buy the argument that supporting case makes
passwords significantly more secure, but it does make them
significantly more of a PITA.
Hi Joe,
As usual, an excellent response. I signed on to this feature request:

You and I may not think case-sensitivity makes for a stronger
password, but as long as some of my users do, it's still an issue for
me.
Thanks,
Steve
