Bug Description
In the Alias Edit window, you have access to the password saved there. It should be either encrypted in some manner, or not visible at all. This should be a password field.
The problem is that any bystander can have access to your login details, which is bad.

Hi
This field is totally informative since it's not used in any way. About the problem with people seeing it, that's why I added the clickable control on top of it, so you can hide it and show it only when in need of it.
Also, this field isn't encrypted on the file connections.xml since it's supposed to be accessible only by the current user of mcm.
Thanks and sorry for the delay.
