Option to Disable Secret Values in Kubernees Dashboard UI

[mikeNetHopper]

What would you like to be added?

I would love the ability to leave out the value of secrets or asterisk them out when viewing secrets in the kubernetes dashboard ui. Seems like it could be a relatively easy addition just not feeding the values to the UI.

Why is this needed?

It allows for increased security in clusters and peace of mind that ever changing resource additions/subtractions/types don't need to always need to be managed/accounted for with ultra specific RBAC.

Force hiding secret values only on the UI side wouldn't increase security since it would be just a workaround. API would still send full response and it would be as easy as checking the networking tab to see it. The only proper way of managing that is through Kubernetes native features such as RBACs. Dashboard is basically just a proxy to the K8S API server.
