In the same build from trunk, I noticed that after setting an
administrative password, it is no longer possible to login with
telnet:

===============================
$ telnet 192.168.2.1 -l root

Trying 192.168.2.1...
Connected to 192.168.2.1.
Escape character is '^]'.
Login failed.
Connection closed by foreign host.
===============================

This is bad, because if dropbear is not installed or running, and if
luci-app-opkg is not installed, then there is no way to get a shell on
the machine from that point on. There is no way to set the
administrative password to "" again either.

Cheers!
Iordan
