Description Alexander Kouznetsov 2005-05-31 15:59:52 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
- Add WebSphere Server Instance
- Right-click its node and select Properties. Properties window is shown
- Try to enter new password.
- RESULT: During entering it is shown without asteriks. It is security issue.

Well.. For the plugins we do not really need that level of security. The plugins
are mostly used to work with local, development instances that are not so
security-critical. Thus making this a P3 ENCH.

Moving back to DEFECT as per request from QE.
Comment 3 Kirill Sorokin 2005-06-16 17:18:41 UTC 
Need to change the property's type to password, while it is plain string now.
Comment 4 Kirill Sorokin 2005-06-17 23:50:45 UTC 
Now the password field is a real JPasswordField component
