I installed emacs for a collegue and the visible password is the major reason 
why he switches to the quite inconvenient term/ansi-term mode instead of 
shell.

So I think it is very relevant: It’s a matter of good defaults to never show 
the Password your user types. Especially not (quasi-)root passwords.
