Is it a bad idea to bind PasswordBox password?

Using tools like WPF Inspector or Snoop you can spy the password string. An alternative to passing the PasswordBox to the view-model is to attach a Behavior<UIElement> object to your PasswordBox object like below:

public sealed class PasswordBoxBehavior : Behavior<UIElement>
{
    protected override void OnAttached()
    {
        base.OnAttached();
        AssociatedObject.LostKeyboardFocus += AssociatedObjectLostKeyboardFocus;
    }

    protected override void OnDetaching()
    {
        AssociatedObject.LostKeyboardFocus -= AssociatedObjectLostKeyboardFocus;
        base.OnDetaching();
    }

    void AssociatedObjectLostKeyboardFocus(object sender, KeyboardFocusChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        var associatedPasswordBox = AssociatedObject as PasswordBox;
        if (associatedPasswordBox != null)
        {
            // Set your view-model's Password property here
        }
    }
}

and the XAML code:

<Window ...
        xmlns:i="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Interactivity;assembly=System.Windows.Interactivity">
    ...
    <PasswordBox ....>
        <i:Interaction.Behaviors>
            <local:PasswordBoxBehavior />
        </i:Interaction.Behaviors>  
    </PasswordBox>
    ...
</Window>

Not binding the password box thinking snooping it will not yield the results is not wise to think!.

Passwordbox.Password will still show the password no matter what]1
