Revealing master password stops working if input box loses focus [Intentional Windows design]
I figure this is probably on purpose so you can't recover a previously entered password, but right now it will be disabled even by removing focus from the input box.
Scenario;
Entering very long master password,
Hitting 'Reveal' to verify it's correct but missing the button and tapping the background instead.
Input box now loses focus, the on-screen keyboard disappears, and the reveal button no longer functions.
Security is good, but this seems like it's being triggered a little bit too easily.

This is how Windows default PasswordBox operates, reveal works for the text that was just entered, navigating away and back will disable reveal button. Personally I find it's quite confusing too, but I guess Microsoft has had a good reason behind such behavior.

Hm ok, guess you just gotta be careful to not fat finger the button then :)

Typing slowly helps me most of the time. :smile:
At least there is Hello support in the UWP app version, so you don't have to type the master password often throughout the day.
