Visual designer writes "firstName.setSecret(false);"

Trying to use Visual Designer.
Adding text field creates an entry like "firstName.setSecret(false);" which generates error as the method is undefined for Text Field.
Manually corrected code.
Any change made to user interface writes the same line back.
Using alpha 2. Is this fixed in any nightly build?

Visual designer has not yet been updated to support the alpha versions of Vaadin 7. Even if we would update it now, it would quite soon lag behind again as features in Vaadin are changed during the development cycle. As we approach a stable Vaadin 7.0.0 release, things will probably stabilize, making it easier to keep Visual designer up to date.

In this particular case, the problem is that the setSecret method has been removed after being deprecated for quite some time in favor of using PasswordField.
