Details

Allowing users to show entered passwords can reduce frustration, especially in situations where long passwords are typed.

It would be useful to have a show/hide password icon everywhere master passwords are entered: creating, changing, and editing.

:bj thanks for reminding us about this missing reveal icon!

Now that Firefox Nightly provides a way to review any password in a web page the lack of the same option for the primary password sticks out even more.

Enter primary password and change password password now have a reveal icon.
