I just wanted to do something relaxing and fixed the issue with the
password being showed as plain text after creation. I also combined v2
and additional into it.

And just you have something to choose from I did a patch with and one
without the Password: ******* fields.

I'm personally of the opinion that it does not matter much which way we
choose as long as we choose one soon. As it's really not showing any
useful information AND the asterisks are there in the _input_ fields if
you entered a password before I would use the one without showing that
information again.

Susanne
