Description

When adding a userPassword in an existing entry, the password is not shown in the main windows (which is a good idea). But when the entry is modified, the log view shows the entire ldif, with the password in clear text (or BASE64 encoded).

It would be much safer to replace the password with ****** in the ldif logs.
