Hi,

I use the same workflow with pass.

To avoid displaying the password on the console or in the editor I wrote 
two small extensions `pass tail` and `pass tailedit`. They work very 
similar to your patch.
I've been using them for a while now and just put them on github:
https://github.com/palortoff/pass-extension-tail

To keep pass as awesome and as simple as it is I think functionality 
like this that can easily be implemented as an extension should not be 
implemented within pass itself.
