Jesse Ciancetta commented on RAVE-420:
--------------------------------------

Right -- I'd noticed that too -- the current implementation of 
NewAccountService.createNewAccount(...) requires a non-null password to be set 
in the new user passed in, otherwise I think you'll likely end up with a null 
pointer.  However for the use case we have which inspired this JIRA ticket that 
was fine though because we're setting the password to a random value -- leaving 
it blank just didn't seem right (even though we also disabled the spring 
security components which support forms based login)...

Would you still rather have the ability to leave it blank though?
