The role of the confirmation is to make sure you didn't make a typo somewhere. If it's visible from the start, you know you didn't make a typo, so the confirmation is useless, no? On android when you enter a wifi password for instance, it's invisible when you type it (replace by *) by there is a small button on the side of the text entry to allow you to see it in plaintext to check that you didn't make a mistake. Could we implement that instead? There won't be a need for a confirmation either in that case.
