> While I can see the usefulness for _new_ users, people who upgrade should not have defaults changed in unexpected ways.
We strive to present the same user experience for upgrades as for new installs; primarily to reduce the risk of some behavior affecting only a subset of users, and missing that as part of the release or upgrade enablement. The other aspect is that if you maintain a fleet of machines, some upgraded, and some new installs, they should broadly behave the same, otherwise the administrators need to figure out why some machines behave differently and that is very annoying to deal with. > Make each keystroke place two or three stars to fuzz the length while keeping the feedback This would be highly problematic given sticky keys issues, double key press issues, etc. that can happen with keyboards. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2142721 Title: sudo-rs echos * for every character typed breaking historical security measures older than I am To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rust-sudo-rs/+bug/2142721/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
