is there a gnupg option to view the passphrase while it is being 
entered?
(in pgp 2.x there was one, 'ShowPass = on')

if not,
can it be considered as a future feature?

as passphrases become longer, it would be helpful ;-)
and, alone at the privacy of one's own system,
it shouldn't be any more of a security risk ...

TIA,

vedaal
