Public bug reported:
To get a remembered password in plain text all you have to do is open
seahorse, then right-click on the desired password, properties,
password, show password. And there's the password on your screen.
This makes it too easy to steal a password, seahorse should ask for the
current user's password before showing such sensitive information.
