Comment 89 for bug 194472

I understand that there are very strong belives here. If devs think, that the asterisks should not be shown, then this is fine with me. But why not just edit the text which is displayed when someone opens a terminal? Please read what I wrote in the first posting of this issue...

<--- cut --->
Until a user entered his first "sudo" command he sees these lines every time he opens a terminal

--
To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

foo@bar:~$
---

[...]

***So please could you add a little sentence, that you can't see asteriks or your password while entering your sudo password. This would reduce the confusion a little bit (if people would read that note ;)***

I think that this could be a good compromise here?
