Reveal with 'option' key problem with window manager Witch

I am using the Witch window manager, for which window switching is triggered with option+tab. In this case, switching out of the 1password window into another window reveals the concealed password for a brief moment (because of the option key). I consider this to be a security risk when switching windows in front of others. Is it possible to turn off revealing password with the option key?

    Hi @stoicoff,

    It's not possible to turn off the keyboard shortcut (option) for revealing passwords. However, I will let our developers know that you're interested in this ability.

    I'm not sure if it's possible, but if it is you could change the keyboard shortcut for Witch as a workaround.

    Sorry I don't have a better answer for you!

    This is also important to me. I was surprised that this is not already configurable in 1P5, as all keys with special behavior should be.
