I made this binding so that the user observes same characters (?*)
to hide the input as with command:
M-x term-send-invisble RET
> More specifically, shouldn't `read-passwd` do that for us (hence if it

I don't think so. `read-passwd' uses ?. as default. The docstring
suggest us to let-bind `read-hide-char' in case we wish another char.
Alternatively we could use ?. always as default, and change
`term-send-invisble'.
Personaly, I prefer ?* because my vision is quite poor and ?. looks too
small :-|

Indeed, one of my favourite Beach Boys songs.

Agreed. It's not obvious at first glance.
