iPad: rotation erases (most of) master password entry

a slight bug here:
i started entering my master pw in landscape mode, then decided to switch to portrait (because the keyboard's a more sensible size -- until iOS 5). after doing so, i expected to type the last few characters of my pw and continue. but it didn't work that way. after switching orientation, as soon as i entered the next character, the number of bullets (indicating characters typed) was reduced to one.
the same happens when switching from portrait to landscape, as well.
a minor issue, of course, but perhaps it should be investigated.
thanks.

Thanks for mentioning this. I'm surprised I've not seen this come up before. I guess I never change orientation halfway through typing my master password in normal usage. However, I was able to easily reproduce the issue.
Essentially: the master password input field is cleared when changing orientation.
I will pass this along to the developers.0
