Entry - Different font for placeholder when password mode is enabled
Description
I found that when I set IsPassword, the Placeholder font is changed.
I have attached pictures, I can not understand whether it is a different font, or the spacing between the letters or size of font has changed, but if you quickly change the IsPassword, you can see how the placeholder changes.

Hi @KSemenenko. We have added the "s/needs-repro" label to this issue, which indicates that we require steps and sample code to reproduce the issue before we can take further action. Please try to create a minimal sample project/solution or code samples which reproduce the issue, ideally as a GitHub repo that we can clone. See more details about creating repros here: https://github.com/dotnet/maui/blob/main/.github/repro.md
This issue will be closed automatically in 7 days if we do not hear back from you by then - please feel free to re-open it if you come back to this issue after that time.
@KSemenenko also, your video doesn't seem to play - can you try uploading it again?
Let me create new one
@hartez I realised that video will be avaialalbe after 6-8 minutes. seesm it take some time for loading. anyway, I made screenshots and test project.
I found most different font, by button press I just invert IsPassword for fields.
<Entry FontFamily="RubikDistressedRegular" Placeholder="Password" FontSize="16" x:Name="EntryBox1"/>
<Entry FontFamily="RubikDistressedRegular" Placeholder="Password" Text="My Complicated Password" FontSize="16" IsPassword="True" x:Name="EntryBox2"/>
We've moved this issue to the Backlog milestone. This means that it is not going to be worked on for the coming release. We will reassess the backlog following the current release and consider this item at that time. To learn more about our issue management process and to have better expectation regarding different types of issues you can read our Triage Process.
Cannot reproduce the issue in current main branch:

when you click on the button (to change the IsPassword) are the fonts the same in the two comments?
For me, when IsPassword is enabled, it uses the default font and not the one I set back in the Entry settings.
do you have new versions of maui?
confirming that I'm able to reproduce this issue on the current main branch. Will continue investigating!
