Description

![password-input-bug](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1296388/23613768/1849cd46-0281-11e7-8db6-4ebc297871c2.gif)

I noticed that password input morphs serialize and deserialize fine (i.e. copy) yet, when they are being stored as part of another part in the Partsbin they become unresponsive to any user input.
Serialization + Deserializtion seems to fix it again.

Another bug that is that the `onInputChanged()` is never being called. Neither are events such as `onKeyDown()`.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by storing a password input morph inside another part in the Partsbin, then compare its behavior before and after serialization and deserialization. Check why user input and callbacks such as onInputChanged() and onKeyDown() stop working after Partsbin restoration; done means the stored password input accepts input and invokes these handlers.
