** Description changed:

  It appears there is the font/height rendering issue in multiple places.
  With the textentry "jumping" in height slightly upon entering anything.
  
  I have observed this on the login screen password entry screen,
  lockscreen entry, and the gnome pin entry for my ssh/gpg smartcard.
  
  It almost feels as if the "dots" of the hidden password are either of
  larger font size and/or bold, whilst an empty text field and/or
  unfocused text field font is either smaller and or regular (non-bold).
  Resulting in a rendering / layout jiggles.
+ 
+ 
+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+ Password input field increase the vertical size as soon as the user
+ types something
+ 
+ [ Test case ]
+ 
+ 1. Run:
+    pkexec true
+ 2. Start typing something
+ 3. The input field should not resize vertically
+ 
+ This works only in case the big-font a11y option is not enabled
+ 
+ [ Regression potential ]
+ 
+ Input Text entries might be slightly taller than they were
