hmm, might have been a little hasty there, as you won't have a field
in your form for 'password_plain' and therefore won't ever see the
error message. How about adding an extra field to your form of
'password_confirm', then adding the rule to that. If the confirmation
fails you'll then see the error message (and you can check they are
the same).
