Password Field Editor in Preferences Page [message #305438]

Hello,

I've added a preferences page. There the user should be able to enter
his user name and password. For the password I need some special text
input box, where the characters are replaced by asterisks. So far I've
only found the StringFieldEditor which takes normal text.

Does anybody if there is an editor for this purpose?

Thanks in advance,
Riad Djemili
