But as far as I'm concerned, right now there is a password set by the OSCAR Wizard, but it is not used.
What do you mean it's not used? I was under the impression that it set the password on the mysql db and then stashed it in a root-owned 0400 file in /etc somewhere, and then looked in that file for all subsequent accesses to get the password.
I know that that's the way it *used* to be... if it has changed, then it should be changed back.
So perhaps we should simply implement it such that the password is actually set in MySQL?
To remove the prompt, perhaps we can simply randomly generate the password, and put it in a root-readable file.
As I said, I have no opinion on the UI issue.
