[jira] [Created] (RANGER-819) Allow pasting into password fields in Ranger web UI

Jim Halfpenny created RANGER-819:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Allow pasting into password fields in Ranger web UI
                 Key: RANGER-819
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/RANGER-819
             Project: Ranger
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: admin
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
            Reporter: Jim Halfpenny


Ranger does not permit pasting values from the clipboard into the password field within the admin UI. This blocks the use of password managers and makes entry of complex passwords difficult. This does not contribute to the security of Ranger and encourages use of less secure passwords and this feature should be removed.
