Digging a bit more, it looks like the Crowd plugin suffers from the
same "default password in the database" problem. Here's a proposed
patch: call user.reset_password after saving the user.

Advantages:
1. The database password is no longer known to anyone.
2. Reuse the same cryptographic complexity upon which the usual "reset
password" application function relies.
