If the script can paste into the box and hit the "OK" button I assume it could also simulate key strokes ...no?

No, Its my understanding that the NSSecureTextField is very particular about how it will get its input. i.e You can't use the Accessibility APIs to fill it in and I suspect that it only responds to characters generated by a real keyboard event, not one that has been created by other means.


I could be wrong though
