[Idle-dev] IDLE getpass?

Is there an easy way that one can enter a password in IDLE but not have
the characters show (or just show asterisks)? The only way I can think of
is to bind(<KeyPress>) but that seems to be overkill. I'm looking for
something like replacing sys.stdout or some Tkinter function. Any hints
appreciated.
