Details:

When trying to log into the MP server with Wesnoth 1.9.5+svn (r49358) using
the wrong password for a forum account, Wesnoth presents the user with a new
dialog in which the password field is not obscured with asterisks as it
should.

Furthermore, trying to modify the password in the same dialog in this case
results in either a segmentation fault (when attempting to insert new
characters in the middle) or an assertion failure (inserting new characters at
the end, deleting characters).

Attached are a screenshot showing the dialog in this dangling state, the
backtrace on the assertion failure case, and the backtrace on the segmentation
fault case.
