Minor comint.el bug

[Marshall, Simon]

Guys, I don't maintain comint.el anymore so this report would be best
dealt with by whoever does now.  Davis, what version of Emacs is this?

If, when using `comint-watch-for-password-prompt' as an output filter,
the
user quits at the pretty password prompt it provides, the `nil' that
`comint-read-noecho' returns causes `send-invisible' to prompt again
with
the generic "Non-echoed text: ", which is confusing.  However, if the
user
quits again, this time it displays "Warning: text will be echoed"; this
is a good thing, so it would be bad to just make
`comint-watch-for-password-prompt' do (and pw (send-invisible pw)).
Some
merger or refactoring is evidently needed (which I'd be glad to attempt
if
desired).

Happy debugging,
Davis Herring
