This is what I am suggesting---just support the default case, both in
the software and how the database server is being shipped. I have
thought about this a lot (and ways to generate random passwords for
database users), since I have my own software which needs to make use of
a database, and I would like to automate the process.


I'm all for creating random passwords, in most situations. In case of
mythtv, these passwords also need to be used by each frontend connecting to
the backend, even on the local system. Which is in most cases a random user
(not pre-defined).

In that case the password would need to be easily found by the user using
the frontend.
