           Summary: Hidden Password user input, using either no echo or
                    stars e.g. ********
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5.4
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows 2000
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: alanglois@axiomsystems.com


User input for a Password during an installation is visible using the 
InputRequest class. Can this be enhanced to allow either no echo or stars e.g. 
******** instead of the visible string. Our Java code segment currently looks 
like this:

      InputRequest request = null;
      if (validargs != null) {
        Vector accept = StringUtils.split(validargs, ',');
        request = new MultipleChoiceInputRequest(message, accept);
      }
      else {
        request = new InputRequest(message);
      }
      getProject().getInputHandler().handleInput(request);

Many thanks,

Andrew
