Public bug reported:

On Bionic when I am prompted to enter my password via polkit I can type
a lot of characters in to the input field, above 24 characters the dots
hiding the actual characters overflows the input field.

I can reproduced this by:

Logging out of snapd (snap logout)
snap refresh <some snap I have installed>  (note, not sudo)
polkit prompt appears
type > 25 chars
notice the overflow

** Affects: gnome-shell (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
