Not sure showing asterisks while users are entering the password they want to use to protect a page is a good UI / User experience.

Unless I'm missing something, seems to me this should be fixed for WP 6.3 as it's a less than ideal UI to release to the public.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

• Edit a page in the Site editor.
• Try to set a password to protect the page.
• Observe that all you can see while entering your password is a nice series of asterisks.
