Disable password toggle ImageButton when TextInputEditText is disabled

Question

When a TextInputLayout's app:passwordToggleEnabled attribute is set to true and a TextInputEditText's android:enabled attribute is set to false, how can one prevent the password toggle ImageButton from being clickable?

<com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_margin="24dp"
    android:hint="@string/password"
    app:hintAnimationEnabled="true"
    app:passwordToggleEnabled="true">

    <com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputEditText
        android:id="@+id/edit_text"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="textPassword"
        android:maxLength="32"
        android:maxLines="1"
        android:enabled="false"/>

</com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout>

Is this a bug or expected behavior?

Like I mentioned in the comments, a simple solution to your problem would be to setEnabled of the TextInputLayout to false rather than the TextInputEditText. Since the TextInputLayout houses the TextInputEditText, the entire layout would be disabled by this. Here's a little demo:

TextInputLayout textInputLayout = findViewById(R.id.textInputLayout);

if(someCondition){
    textInputLayout.setEnabled(false);
}

I hope this helps.. Merry coding!
