Add option to toggle password visibility

[da-batt]

Description

Would be nice to have the ability to toggle password visibility. Sometimes It's useful to be able to check why the current password is wrong and edit accordingly.

Agreed.

Any update on this?

@ashley-paul-12345 seams like nah, but it would be a great feature))

This is not a feature, it is required.

I'm using 4 different keyboard layouts and I can't see which one is chosen when it's locked. This would be really useful to see what you wrote. Now I have to hard reboot to get to a state where I know which keyboard I'm using to write the password correctly.

Damn why you need 4??

I use only 2..

Because I have to write in so many languages on a daily basis, and each of them has it's own quirks so it's difficult to just reuse a different layout for it.

I've modified placeholder value in the config to show the current keyboard layout

input-field {
  ...
  placeholder_text = $LAYOUT
}

Hope this helps <3

That's a very good workaround, thanks!
