Change racist term

Current state of affairs: A racist term is used for the password that enables access to the Bitwarden vault, whether on mobile, browser or desktop, namely “m_ster password”. The same term is used within the (web) app in various places when referring to this password.

Feature request: To change this racist term at the password prompt and everywhere within the (web) app.

Given an otherwise unmodified password manager, the following terms could be used instead: Bitwarden password, vault password, main password, access password. I’m sure there are more, these are just suggestions.

What’s important is that the racist term (“m_ster password”) is changed, and that that is understood as one of many necessary steps on the way to a just and equitable society, within Bitwarden, within tech and beyond.
