Thanks for your response.
As you've quoted my comment was aimed a Debian in general. I have also
previously commended the d-i team on its improvement of the d-i in etch.
Much easier to use. In fact its now easier to use than MS's installer.

I do realize the importance of good/strong password and the desire of
guiding installers to used them. I also realize the need for ease of use

If I'm new to Debian installer I don't care about good/strong passwords

I'd suggest turning this around.
Hello.
Thanks for people who gave me comments:-)
I wrote a new patch which changed these.
* s/chkpasswd/checkpasswdstrength/
* fix indent.
* rewrote messages in user-setup-udeb.templates.
* default answer is true.
The user has to choose a strong password now in default.
Cheers,

Hello.
I wrote a password checking feature implement by shell script in function.sh.
I attached a patch which name is passwd_check.patch.
This logic checks these.

is password check into password strength check

There are two ways to do this:
- the hard way, like Owl [1], which implements a password checking module
(pam_passwdqc, which was written by Solar Designer) and goes even
further by proposing random passwords if the user is unable to provide
one.
- the simple way, see attached

Currently, the debian-installer warns the user to use a secure password (6
chars long, with different case letters and punctuation characters) but does
not make an attempt to determine if the user is indeed using one.
