Original Description
Description:
Document how to use passwordPrompt() instead of specifying an explicit password string literal.
Engineering Ticket Description:
When a user is created or when we update a password in the shell, the password is in plain text.
Can we have a way to mask password on user creation? For example, by prompting for the password with echo off.
Such feature could also be implemented on password change.
