This might be a good place to complain about -ed out passwords on mobile phones. It makes it next to impossible to enter a password(yes the last letter not -ed out for a few seconds only helps a tiny bit). If I'm not copy-pasting from keepass I'm entering the password in the login field then cut/paste it.

I wonder if Shift+Insert works... (is that only a Linux thing?) Or Rt-Click -> Paste.
To say nothing about right click - paste... unless they're doing the 1999 thing and blocking right click too (and if they are, hopefully it's with a 1999-tastic alert("Right click not allowed!");).
also interesting is that t-mo will truncate any password at 15 characters without warning and then only accept 15 upon login.. At least that was the state of things about 2 weeks ago
Adobe does the same thing with the horrible license-management selfcare site. Which, as far as I can tell, is some kind of SAP frontend.

Please, in the future, whenever talking about PCI compliance, cite chapter and verse. There's more than enough wild speculation running around about it, all sorts of myths are repeated and propagated.
I asked a GetGamesGo employee about the pasting issue and that is what he told me. Let me get the full quote: "Cut/paste passwords – that’s a stipulation of PCI compliance. We could scrap it, but they ask for it. We have to be PCI compliant on card processing." I provided as much information as I had available, I do not know the chapter/verse. Apologies if I spread any misinformation, I took this rep at his word.

In Linux selecting text and middle-click has saved me countless times

My guess - varchar(15) Adobe does the same thing with the horrible license-management selfcare site. Which, as far as I can tell, is some kind of SAP frontend.

And MySQL? ;-)
I hate when people disable pasting in password fields. Some of my passwords are 50 character random strings stored in 1password and sometimes I need to copy/paste and can not do it (ahem, icloud). I usually end up disabling javascript if the page still renders without javascript.
Assuming you're on Linux, you can just pipe the input into "xargs xdotool type". Thanks to the keyboard abstraction in X, no program will ever be able to tell that you didn't just type that on a keyboard.
