Broken password field frame

Tested in virtual machine in qcow2 format on QEMU/KVM via virt-manager 3.2.0 with engine libvirt 7.0.0.

Host | OS: Fedora Desktop 34; Kernel: 5.13.4-200.fc34.x86_64

In guest | To reproduce while installing:
1. Log in as user "installer" with password "opnsense".
2. Select 'finnish' as keymap then test insertion of Scandinavian characters. (Tested with Finnish-standardized keyboard - characters ä, ö, å).

Actuals results:

Short-pressed key not converted into the insertion of its equivalent character; the field remains blank;
Once the previous operation has been accomplished, short-pressing ← does break the left-sided bar composing the frame of the field, indicating then that a character had been inserted and had not been made visible. Illustration when ä, ö, å have been pressed each once, then ← pressed till there is nothing left to delete.

See 1.png

Long-pressing – 2–3 seconds – ä does insert invisible character(s) followed by a serial composed of its equivalent characters, exactly as long as follows.

See 2.png

Short-pressing ← does not delete characters;
Long-pressing – 2–3 seconds – ← does delete characters, still breaking the left-sided bar composing the frame of the field when kept pressed,
