I think overlaying is going to be a serious issue.

I dropped password down to 6 characters to allow me to use 4 characters
for my dummy. This allows me to practice overlaying without having the
start right at the start of the other field. With only 2 characters it
would have been tough.
Then I moved my dummy down and had it start 2 characters before the entry
field for program.
This seemed to clobber the field start attribute for PROGRAM and made it
unusable.

I ended up with

And I could not enter anything for Program. I think that was technically
because the field start attribute was overlaid.
