I've been doing a lot of ftp activity lately, and I just noticed one thing
and thought of another.

The thing I noticed is that our current ftp client stores empty command
lines in its cursor-accessible history list.  This Should Not Happen [TM].

The thing I thought of is that isn't there some way that, given a username
of either "anonymous" or "ftp" (which operate synonymously in most, if not
all, implementations...), that the "Password:" prompt could actually be put
into ECHO mode so you can see what you're typing?

 convenient little molds and perceiving us as convenient little threats?"
