Force spellcheck anywhere
Authored by: leeww on Jun 18, '06 04:39:25AM
I have always seen SHIFT+COMMAND+; as a (very minor) security flaw. If (and these are admittedly big 'ifs') someone types their private password into a field and it appears, as it normally does, as a series of bullet points so as not to reveal any information. ...and.... this password is a non-standard word (one that is not recognised by spell checker) ...Then leaving the password in the field without entering it and leaving your desk, means that someone can use SHIFT+COMMAND+; to reveal your password. Far-fetched but possible !
