Automator bug?

Title: Automator bug?
This  line

display dialog "Enter your password." default answer  "" hidden answer  true

compiles fine in the normal Script Editors, but in Automator in an AppleScript action it errors saying it "expected end of line, etc. but found property", and it then highlights the word "hidden". It will compile this much okay;

display dialog "Enter your password." default answer ""

but once you add the "hidden answer true" portion it errors on compile. Other optional parameters of display dialog can also trigger errors in compiling in an Automator action. I'm trying to use a password filed in the display dialog but it looks like a non-starter. Anyone able to make it work. I'm running 10.4.2
