Comment 5 for bug 1883180

It's such a common use case to want to only ask for hostname, it's really frustrating that there's no way to do that. I mean, it's generally frustrating that all of the options are bundled into categories and you always have to make the whole section interactive, but this one option in particular is painful since you can't even pre-fill the password.

Filling with asterisks is an obvious solution, very widely used by other projects.
