Yes and no. It's possible it a tightly defined setting with specified
outcomes. Since a crucial factors here include how likely someone is to
either intentionally attempt to steal a password (and how much effort they
will go to) or to opportunistically use a casually spotted password and
what the consequences of that happening are versus the risk of a
potentially wrongly set password it's likely any genuine research is going
to be hard to transfer.
