Title:
  Show password feature should be configurable

Status in OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon):
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  
  Horizon allows the password field to be displayed in plain text. This introduces a potential security risk.  Imagine a user leaving their desktop unlock, if the user saved their password on the browser, a malicious user could go into the Login page and display the Openstack password.

  The show password feature should be made configurable for operators
  who wants a more secure deployment of Horizon.
