#### What is the current behavior?
With a step decorator like this:

Which takes an element (a text box) and enters the value in it. In the step function I display the value that I want to enter No matter what I enter on the step title, the report always shows the info that was passed as arguments to the function.
My report looks like the following image:

#### If the current behavior is a bug, please provide the steps to reproduce and if possible a minimal demo of the problem
Not a bug
#### What is the expected behavior?
Thus, the "value" argument will always be displayed and that is something that I cannot have on certain projects. I could either use with not showing the value at all or to change it to something like '*****'. Is there anyway to make a custom step function that solves my problem?.
#### What is the motivation / use case for changing the behavior?
I am currently working on a Testing Automation team, using Python and Allure to make reports of all the test cases that we run. Sometimes we deal with sensible data (e.g: passwords) that I can't show directly on the reports due to data protection policies.
