Description
I think I have found a bug in the password protection of wordpress sites.
I have a page that's visibility is password protected. Now when I update this page I need the passwort to look at it. For this I click at edit and copy the password from the textbox. I dont want to change the password, so I press cancel. The problem is, that when I do this, afterwards, the textbox for the password is empty and so the visibility of the page is public.

I have the Version 3.5.1 of the WordPress core and the patch you have linked is already inside of the code. I've checked the lines of the patch and they are exactly the lines of my code (only the number of the line is a bit different).
The problem is still there even though there is a patch.
