Description Ngo Trung 2014-03-12 16:20:22 UTC

The no echo mode is often used to type password or to implement interactive
console applications. Therefore we should notify IMEs to stop processing (and
stop showing the preediting text of my password) in this mode.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Konsole
2. Run `sudo -s` to put terminal into no echo mode
3. Type something with ibus-anthy or any input method that uses preediting
Actual Results:  
Your password is shown in ibus-anthy's preedit view.

Expected Results:  
It should be hidden.

We can do this by setting the "inputMethodHints" property of QWidget to
Qt::ImhHiddenText.

Hi Ngo, I can't reproduce this on 18.08.1. When I run sudo -s, my password is hidden. How do I run something with ibus-anthy or any input method that uses preediting?
