I like that I can now see if I spelled the password correctly. It also helps me remember what password I'm using on a site. One issue with this plugin is that autocomplete now remembers my passwords in plain text. While this could be helpful, it's also a security risk some might not expect(somebody accessing your computer later, instead of looking over your shoulder).

This is great. Appears to work exactly as advertised. Why would I want to hide my passwords from myself when there's nobody looking over my shoulder? Can you do the same for Firefox? Please?
