Implement a password visibility toggle feature for the registration and login pages.
Users should be able to click on a button to show or hide their passwords while typing.
This feature should mimic the functionality already present in the password change area.
Motivation
Enhanced User Experience: Providing users with the ability to view their password input ensures they can avoid typos and are confident in the information they provide.
Consistency: This feature is already available in the password change section; implementing it on the registration and login pages would create a consistent user experience across the platform.
Security: Allows users to verify their passwords in private settings without relying on possibly insecure methods like typing passwords in plain text elsewhere.
Use Cases
New Users: A new user attempts to register but is unsure if they have typed their password correctly due to special characters or case sensitivity.
Existing Users: An existing user with a complex password needs to log in but wants to ensure accuracy in their password entry, especially on a mobile device with a smaller keyboard.
Accessibility: Users with disabilities or those who find it difficult to type accurately on virtual keyboards will benefit from being able to check their password inputs.
Expected Behavior
A button (often represented by an eye icon) should be available in the password field.
When the user clicks the button, the password should be displayed in plain text.
Clicking the button again should hide the password, reverting to bullet points or asterisks.
The toggle should not alter the focus on the password field, allowing users to continue typing without interruption.
