---------------------------+------------------------------------------------
 When opening a Feature Source with secured credentials, the password field
 in the UI is blank. This is by-design as a populated password field means
 that the Feature Source XML content contains the password in plaintext
 which is a bad thing.

 To remedy this from a usability perspective, the password field should be
 filled in with a fake password. This won't actually modify the underlying
 password as the writing of the password field to the MG_USER_CREDENTIALS
 resource data item only happens when the user saves/tests the Feature
