Digging into this some, it seems that the widget already has the correct accessible role. The bug is that something in unity greeter is causing the Orca splash screen to not be suppressed. As a result, the splash screen appears, goes away, and nothing in the greeter reclaims focus. So Orca doesn't know it's in the object with ROLE_PASSWORD_TEXT. When I disabled the splash screen, Orca does not echo the keys when the password is typed.
The good news is that it is my understanding that Luke already has a patch proposed to solve the splash-screen suppression bug, so this bug should just go away when that fix is committed.
