   @bitflicker64 Thanks for the detailed report. Our current preference is to 
preserve compatibility and keep the change focused.
   
   We should distinguish the restrictions imposed by HTTP Basic from any 
additional product-level character policy. RFC 7617 forbids control characters 
in both usernames and passwords, and forbids a colon in the username. A colon 
in the password is valid: only the first colon separates the two fields. 
Ordinary spaces and commas are not prohibited by that rule.
   
   Credential validation should be consistent between creation/password updates 
and login. Unsupported input should be rejected before saving a change, so it 
cannot leave an account with an unusable password. Any broader ASCII-only 
restriction needs a separate compatibility decision rather than being inferred 
from Basic's rules.
