Description of problem: User is now asked visually confirm encoded auto-install password with a yes/no question which is not really easy to do because it's long (try this OFj2IjCsPJFfMAxmQxLGPw== :) Most password tools ask user to input the password twice. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 3.3.DR01
It's not asking you to type in an encoded password, it's asking for plain text. So I think this is OK since you can see what you just typed. I'll close this, feel free to re-open if you feel there is still a problem.
Clarification: I was confused about the usage. User is actually asked to input *clear text* password, not obfuscated. It is still a good idea to type the password twice.
this is going to be addressed with the fix to bug #1141181 - I'm reopening this and will track it along with that BZ
