Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the terminal's secure/password prompt handling and cursor rendering, then determine whether the cursor can change to a key icon during that prompt. Done means the key cursor appears while password input is active and returns afterward.

Describe the solution you'd like?
Well... in an iTerm application (which I put aside to try out Warp :) )
when secure/password prompt is shown, cursor turns to key icon.

That is all, it is just nice to have not matter of life :)
