Summary0003394: Create Game: Allow hiding passwords in the "Misc." tab
DescriptionThere's some visible parts in the Create Game dialog with secrets (passwords) displayed in plaintext with no option to hide them.

Of course, they will be stored in plaintext in config files but allowing to hide the passwords may at least provide some security from an adversary learning secrets by watching over the shoulder if hidden.
Steps To Reproduce
  1. Start Doomseeker.
  2. Press the Create Game icon, or navigate to File → Create Game (Ctrl+S).
  3. Navigate to the "Misc." tab.
  4. Input any characters to three of the password dialogs ("Connect password:", "Join password:", "RCon password:").
  5. Notice how the characters are displayed as plaintext and not bullets.
  6. Notice how there is no checkbox option next to these forms to toggle hiding the passwords between plaintext and bullets.
Additional InformationI acknowledge some of these will still be visible in the "Show join command line" dialog, as intended.

Doomseeker 1.2 has an option to toggle hiding the password in the RCon client, so far.

I'm using Qt 5.9.2.

 As Zalewa pointed out in ticket 0003393, there is a way to hide them from Appearance settings. (Although, this is a bit buggy and non-working in Doomseeker 1.1, possibly due to config backwards incompatibility issues with 1.1 and 1.2.)

For extra convenience, should a new checkbox "Hide" be added next to the password fields in the "Misc." tab to toggle hiding the password of each form input? Reminding this already exists for Doomseeker 1.2's RCon client.

Nevermind me on that, it has no effect on the "Misc." tab in 1.2 either with a new config and "Hide passwords" checked. A bug?

 This works, as long as one remembers the intended functionality:
  • The "Hide passwords" option in Appearance settings is permanent and influences the default option in Create Game.
  • The "Hide passwords" option in Create Game is temporary (toggling it here does not change the "Hide passwords" option in Appearance settings), and not saved to the Create Game configuration (as far as I understand it).

Tested with 1.2~beta-180816-2126M (aafacb71daee), which includes both patches.
