I use a password manager and would like to be able to use it on the mobile version. Support for these managers would be great, but just making the password field have the same behaviour as the name field (but censored) would be great.

I'd like to revive this and hopefully get some form of helpful response from a Mod.

Having the password field non-pastable may SEEM more secure, but it's not. This has been shown across numerous sites/apps already and is just generally a counterproductive practice. People have to use a far weaker but more memorable password simply because they need to sign in and out on mobile. Please change this so people can let their password manager make a super safe password for them, and then paste it into the field. I don't see any reason why this can't be addressed, given the security improvements it'll bring.
