Passwords are taken into account for line edits 
(http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Usability/HIG/LineEdit):

* Mask letters if edit is used to enter passwords.
** When setting a new password, have it entered twice to prevent typos in 
passwords.
** Provide a "Show password" check box to unmask the password both when 
setting new and when entering existing passwords. 

But it is worth to think about the idea to show recently typed letters for a 
short period. @Devs: Would this, rather web based technology, be a problem for 
Qt?
