Support password masking in getpass.getpass()
Currently, getpass.getpass() hides all user input when entering a password. This can throw off non-Unix users who are used to passwords being masked with asterisks *. This has led some users to write their own libraries for this functionality.
Proposal:
- Add an optional argument to `getpass.getpass()` for a character to mask user input
Usage Example:
> import getpass
> password = getpass.getpass(mask='*')
Password: **********
> password = getpass.getpass()
Password: |
