A little enhancement request: Can you hide the Product Password from the Products tab overview, or at least hide them with Password characters '*'.
That would be the same when would show the Products properties that by default they are hidden and on user request they can be shown.

Showing passwords in clear text is just a bad idea.

Thanks,

Marco

We have this on our feature request list. Of course just hiding the password doesn't do a lot because if you give someone access to the database they can generate keys anyway.

I don't know if this suggestion is still being considered, but if you do, make it optional. It is actually pretty silly - if you are the designer and have access to the whole ILS system, then you have more to worry about than someone looking over your shoulder to see your passwords. This is after all, the idea of hiding them. In actual fact, as a designer, I want to be able to see what is going on. I am not using this out in the public, so it is not like logging in to a web site where you might want to hide the password. In other words - don't start hiding the passwords in the apps.
