QLineEdit provides support for no echo, but not 3 stars. personally, i think 
the latter is a neat-but-practically-useless feature. if we get rid of it we 
can get rid of an enum and two ctors in that one class.

and if using QSecureArray means we can get non-ascii suppot for password entry 
(what an emberassing bug) then i'm all for a dependance on QCA.
