Using the RecordEditForm class, how do I add a password field instead of showing plain text?

In the `PersistentRecord` the form is modeling you set the editor source for the column:

```auto
static {
    PASSWORD.getFormMeta().setEditorSource(PasswordEditorSource.getSharedInstance());
}

```

where `PASSWORD` is a `StringField` or `EncodedStringField` of the record.
