Great little module! Thank you!

I think it would be a great benefit to have an indication of when the password was last set/changed (Author-edit view). Ex: Password set 4 days ago.
Use case: This one isn't so easy to justify, but it would provide feedback to the author. Maybe an example is: The author wanted to turn off all access to the node immediately. This, of course, is done simply by changing the password and not giving it to anyone. The author may or may not recall doing it already. There's no feedback from the UI telling him if he did or not. If the UI showed "Password set 30 days ago" then its a good indicator that he did not change the password recently. Idk, I'll bet I'll run into a good reason for having this :)

Plus, equally beneficial is to have the password displayed to the author of the node - unmasked.
Use case: What if the author goes on vacation for a week and then forgets the password? He already has 100 users accessing the node using the password he sent before vacation. Now he must send a new password to everyone.

System Lord created an issue. See original summary.

You do have a "password hint" field which i guess could be used by the author to record their password. I still think, unless there is a good reason to mask the password from the author, that simply displaying the password is better.

Or a check box to "show password" ? I get that option all over my phone and many other sites.

Ok, just found in Views "Password last changed."

I'm going to close this issue since I apparently haven't looked over this module thoroughly enough.
