The text is shown clear because the timeout comes from QPA. So this is more like a QPA than a toolkit bug.

In pocket desktop however, the fact that your passwords are being shown cleartext on a big, external screen is quite nasty. The TextField component should not use this feature if input is coming from a physical keyboard.
