Excuse me, but proposed "consistence" is not a consistence with other
password-reading programs but a consistence with teminals or teminal
emulators.
For example, for me the most used password entries are GDM (login),
gnome-screensaver (session lock) and pinentry for GnuPG and SSH. All
of them use GTK+, and "reset previous typed passwd" is Shift-Home
followed by Del or Backspace.
Should I propose Emacs to behave the same?..
Rhetorical question.
