 * This applies to when you create & publish (or edit) a password protected post.
   If you click on the _Edit_ link next to _Visibility_ then click cancel – without
   changing anything – if you subsequently click “Update” the post becomes public
   even though it still shows as _Password protected_ prior to updating.
