Userdata: nil for unset username and password preferences

#1

When the username and password fields are unset, they return a userdata object with a value of nil, rather than a string object. - what is a userdata object? Should it not just return an empty string?

Also, as some others have already pointed out, the password field is not hidden with **** with a show button (like in most password fields) but can be seen in cleartext.

Hi, @schwark!
Thank you for sharing the behavior of username. I asked the team about it. I’ll get back to you once I get more info.
And yes, the issue with the password preference is already reported, I just pinged the team again to get an update.
