MacBook Pro M1 suggestion: Password visibility and automatic shutdown after OS installation

Not a question - some suggestions. MacBook Pro, M1, Golden Gate 27.0. Really would like:

1) Any password entry box should have a checkbox to see what I've typed!!! Frequently have a typo ....

2) If installing a new OS version, would really like a checkbox to say "Shut down the Mac once the install is finished" - because usually start the install at night and then go to bed!
