What is the best way to ask for a password in an UI created with the AppDesigner?

So far, I have been using a text Edit Field, replacing manually characters with wildcards and saving the actual password as a private property in the "value changed" callback. But there are some drawbacks: the password is visible as long as the user does not click anywhere else in the app and it can't be changed partially (i.e. without deleting the password entirely and retyping it).
