Well, there is a simpler solution, that I can't recall but you can find in a article of Oracle Informant. You can acess to the PDF file of that article on their Web site at
<http://www.informant.com/oracle/oi_index.htm>. Basically, you "catch" all the keystroke, and display something else (like a star "*").

Also, I belive tat in 1.0.16 there is a easier way to do this...
