Description Fabian Vogt 2017-03-30 13:44:57 UTC 
In an application with a password input, like the screenlocker, enter a password, enable to show the plaintext and erase the password again.
Now the password input is in the plaintext state, but that is not visibly indicated. Now everything typed into the field appears in plaintext.
Comment 1 Fabian Vogt 2017-04-21 19:09:19 UTC 
This now got fixed in KWidgetsAddons with https://phabricator.kde.org/D5530
so plasma-framework should be adjusted to behave the same way, for consistency.

Pushed by mart into branch 'master'.

show show password button also if empty text

like happened in KPasswordWidget, show the show password
button also when there is no text, otherwise is impossible
to know what will be typed, a dot or the actual letter
