The password (in my specific case the smtp password in phpmailer settings) is hidden. When it is hidden it will be locked and can only be changed through command line, which is not always an option. If we patch the code and make it not be hidden then the password is shown in plain text.
I am referring to this line:
https://github.com/phacility/phabricator/blob/master/src/applications/config/option/PhabricatorPHPMailerConfigOptions.php#L53
Is it possible to have a function called setPassword(boolean) which translate to a UI that doesn't show the password but allows changing it?
We'd be happy to contribute a fix for this.
Thank you.
