Likewise, I have this problem with current Intrepid - one of two
horrible regressions I've found from hardy, and I've only been using it
3 days.

I can't see how replacing the entered password with hex can be sane
behaviour, even if it's expected.  Apart from the poor usability of this
behaviour, how does the entry dialog tell the difference between a hex
secret and a password that just happens to only contain [0-9a-f]?  Plus,
I cannot see how the hex key is being derived from the password: it's
certainly not just a hex dump of the ASCII.
