"auth_debug_passwords=yes does everything that auth_debug=yes does, but it
also removes password hiding (but only if you are not using PAM, since PAM
errors aren't written to Dovecot's own logs)."

Looks like upgrading won't help either, as I'm using pam:

---
  passdb pam {
  }
  userdb passwd {
  }
