Browser issue Chromium Edge adds its own show password button

We successfully hide the reveal password button on IE10+ and legacy Edge with the following code in core_input.less:

&.input--passwordHideShow
{
    ::-ms-reveal,
    ::-ms-clear
    {
        display: none !important;
    }
}

In the Chromium version of Edge, Microsoft has given this an internal ID for the pseudo element and therefore we cannot actually target it with anything:

This implies that they plan to in the future. In the meantime we have no plans to workaround it and even if we could options for doing so are likely very limited and undesirable.
