Thanks Dmitry,
good source of info for QA to try things out in mentioned directions, and
file bugs with detailed description.

Anyone's contribution into this is very welcome.

There is blueprint to address this:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/fuel/+spec/password-for-console-login.
Actually it is not that dangerous: there is possible access to the system
only via console, so you have to have physical access / remote KVM (which
is usually under password) to servers.

was designed to be so, and I believe it does work... QA to assure us in
this. I believe we should even have system test for it.

Thanks,
