entry of password doesn't leave dots as keys hit (unless I click inside the password area). `sddm` is working exactly as expected, except I'd expect cursor to be inside password area and dots appear if I can type password (how many keys did I press? no indication).

as noted before, if I purposely click into password box, it's exactly as I expect.

In real use, I've just ignored this issue, so I can't see dots so should I be unsure if I hit an incorrect key, I just backspace ~20 times & re-type password (given without dots I can't see how many characters are displayed)

I believe this occurs on many boxes; but I've only recorded on d755-8 & that would mean video card specific maybe? (or requires dual-monitors), but I wonder if it's me ignoring issue..
