The (default?) greeter displays the prompt "Enter your password" when the cursor is positioned in the textbox that is expecting the username.

The greeter also displays the prompt "Enter your username" when the cursor is positioned in the textbox that is expecting the password. This happens when the username textbox is empty.

I watched my wife, my mom, and two friends dutifully enter their passwords (displayed as clear text) in the textbox for the username.

Sigh.
