Comment #8 on issue 1620 by pekka.klarck: `Dialogs.Get Value From User`:
Extend to allow secret input
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1620
The problem with automatically disabling logging is that this keyword
itself doesn't even log values given by the user. The framework itself logs
the returned value, though, and disabling that would require the library
dynamically disabling framework's logging. Alternatively the library could
return a special object that has the actual value as an attribute when
using `hidden=True`. The usage could be something like this:
${result} = Get Value From User Give password: hidden=yes
Do something ${result.value}
Even if nothing like this is implemented, users could anyway disable
logging themselves:
${orig} = Set Log Level NONE
${password} = Get Value From User Give password: hidden=yes
Do something ${password}
Set Log Level ${orig}
A benefit of this is that logging is disabled also when password is used
otherwise.
