It' absolutely annoying that paste is disabled in NSSecureTextField.
From the docs it sounds like that really is on purpose.
"It overrides many aspects of text editing to prevent passing of the
object’s value out by mechanisms available to the user (namely,
through Cut, Copy, and Paste commands, ..."
So it also disabled passing values IN ...not just OUT. Why?
Any idea on how to enable paste in NSSecureTextFields?
Actually, it's not even self-consistent. You can right-click (control-
click) to access a Paste item in the contextual menu. I use this all
the time. So, yes, my password(s) are fairly often on my
clipboard. :-/
I don't understand the logic behind that UI, either.
Cheers,
