Most all Username / Password entry boxes only

the Asterisk (*) when one enters the password.
Is there something in SeaMonkey that one can

entering ?

No, Doctor Bill is a long time, very
occasional, poster hereabouts, from
I think, regional (i.e. about 60-90 miles from
a large City) U.S. of A.
Hmm, be that as it may. Whenever I see these
kinds of message , it
always sends up a social engineering attack
flag. There's no practical
reason to want to know how to unhide a hidden
password field other
than to clear-text pass the password into some
hidden service or some
other nefarious purpose. Just my 2 cents.
No practical reason????????
What about seeing what one is typing when entering
complex passwords?
Think especially about these situations: a lousy
keyboard, like most laptops; working in a dark
area; using a touchscreen; people with dyslexia,
or poor typing skills; the visually impaired; or
those having several hundred passwords for
different sites.
You darn Betcha ! How about 72 years old and
fingers that act like Bananas inside boxing gloves !
These young whippersnappers don't understand.
