I have a smb folder with its username and password stored in gnome-keyring. When i open a file with gedit, the password is exposed in the window titlebar, such as: "filename smb://pw%3busename@server/folder". I think that this should not happen, since that password can be saw by everyone is looking my monitor.
Comment 1 Paolo Maggi 2006-04-20 15:11:24 UTC 
I cannot reproduce this bug. I have tried with both a smb and a sftp folder.
Comment 2 Paolo Maggi 2006-04-20 15:17:29 UTC 
Well, I can reproduce it if I explicitly wrote the username:passwd in the Open Location dialog.

This patch partially solves the problem (the gedit side). A complete fix requires a patch for egg-recent too.
