changing maxLength property for password input not working
===

I have a password input control and by default, the component that creates the password control sets a maxLength of 32. I am trying to change the maxLength of the password input to 128 characters using the dojo.addOnLoad() event handler. The event handler fires but setting the maxLength attribute to 128 doesn't seem to actually work. The limit still seems to be set to the old value : 32.

What workarounds are available ?

P.S : I'm using chrome 20 on windows and firefox 13. 

Thank you
