36972	Provide help text in password prompts for createsuperuser and changepassword commands	Ketan Sahu	Ketan Sahu	"When running `python manage.py createsuperuser`, the password prompt currently shows:
{{{
Password:
}}}
Nothing is printed while typing (for security), but many beginners might think the terminal has frozen or the command isn’t working, since there’s no hint that the input is hidden.

**Suggestion:**  
Update the password prompt in the `createsuperuser` management command to something clearer, like:
{{{
Password (input hidden):
}}}
or
{{{
Password:  [input hidden]
}}}

**Benefit:**  
- Makes clear that password input is working as intended, which is especially helpful for new users or beginners.
- Prevents confusion that the terminal/command has frozen.
- Brings Django’s CLI user experience in line with user-friendly conventions.
