Bug Description
In Focal the network password / passphrase entry form has no way of displaying what is being typed.
I'd expect a checkbox or something...

Thank you for the bug report, you should be able to find an item to show the password in the right click menu, that's not obvious though which is reported upstream on https:/ /gitlab. gnome.org/ GNOME/gnome- shell/issues/ 1022
