fixed in cvs
Comment 2 bill.haneman 2003-09-18 16:09:44 UTC 
not sure this was the right fix; see my comments re bug 122654

we should refuse to do word completion on fields of ROLE_PASSWORD.
Comment 3 bill.haneman 2003-09-19 15:16:59 UTC 
I'm going to close this bug again and open a new one regarding
ROLE_PASSWORD fields.
