Hello,

It looks great!

I would perhaps add that checkbox only for the passphrase, in part
because when I test an install I prefer to have fewer keystrokes :-),
but also because this might clutter dialog boxes and cause troubles:
what if the translation of “Hide” is takes up more space? is it still
going to fit?

WDYT?

Thank you!

Ludo’.
