When one (in "edit user" or "add user") gives a new password, this is shown in clear text, instead of ****.

So you should change in users/user_add.php and users/user_edit.php the text

<input type=\"text\" name=\"password\" size=\"30\" />

to

<input type=\"password\" name=\"password\" size=\"30\" />

    Earlier versions of WebCollab used the password input type in HTML. I think that I changed it after user requests.

    It's easy enough for people to change the code if they desire. I'll leave the code the way it is at present.

    What about an option in the config file?

    I don't want to have to change the code each
    time i update ...

    Not actually a bug, more a feature request. Reassigning.

    Thanks for the request. This is a configurable option now.
