Comment (by djay):

 This PLIP is fully functional just a little more work to make the tests
 pass.

 No API is needed for custom password generation as generated passwords are
 no longer given out to users.

 The sticking point is that I keep getting different advise on how to
 implement this API. It's currently implemented as a PAS User Property
 validation plugin which seemed the most logical as it didn't require any
 new API's to be created. PAS is simple to understand and already
 extensively used in Plone. The current implementation returns both the
 description of what kind of password is needed and specific validation
 errors from the same function call.

 It's really up to the FWT to decide what kind of API they will accept. I'm
 happy for mitchell to reimplement this to provide a different style API if
 that's the preferred solution.
