Created attachment 1832164 [details]
User's password text entry, where one can select to "see the password"

Please, as already done for the user's password entry box, where they can click a button and see the password they inserted, provide a way to do the same thing with all the passwords involved in the installation, such as in the one for the subscription manager.

See the two attached screenshot in order to have it more clear.
