I'm not aware of any authentication design pattern where the user does not get to set their own password, either through initial registration or through automated reset later. Why do you want to know their password at all, even initially? If the word invitation sets you off, think of it as sending someone their initial account credentials. The first thing they will do is set their own password, and from then on, it's just another account. It doesn't matter if that account is for a customer or a staff person. I've used invitable in several applications that had multiple user levels (authorization) but that's getting outside of Devise's wheelhouse (authentication). Can you widen the frame a little and explain why you need to set the password for the staff members?
