Password field in update form

Hello all

I have Entity user that has username, name blah blah... user also has password property.

I disabled rendering of it in list/show forms, but in update form, field is set to type="password".

What bugs me is that you can't update user without re-entering password as no stars are there, and if you don't enter password, password is set to null/"", not sure.

How can I bypass that?

There is also another issue. If I remove some fields from update form, all other fields are set to null.
What I want is to enable user to update some, but not all fields of some entitiy.

Please help
Ivor
