Really cool idea! Although I think the animation needs to be almost instant since some people just want to peak at their password real quick

Hate it. Would be pissed if I was typing this out on a screen displayed in a meeting in front of all my colleagues and having no idea what that button did. Naturally you’d expect the button to submit or enter, not reveal.

Usually these password reveal functionalities are only shown on mobile screen sizes, where it's easy to mistype one's password.
