Package: xdm
Version: 1:1.1.9-1
Severity: normal

After upgrading from xdm 1:1.1.8-6 to 1:1.1.9-1, the password input
field cursor moves a little to the right (maybe a "space" character in
proportional font) for each password character typed, so that it gives
a hint about how long the password is. Although this is not as obvious
as printing asterisks or similar, it should not happen.

I'm not sure if this report belongs to xdm or to xserver-xorg, and/or
xserver-xorg-input-all, since at the same time of upgrading xdm, the
following upgrades took place:

  [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg 1:7.5+3 -> 1:7.5+5
  [UPGRADE] xserver-xorg-input-all 1:7.5+3 -> 1:7.5+5

As the symptom shows in xdm, I'm reporting it for this package.
