Public bug reported:
The password field in the User Accounts panel enforces corporatey
password requirements. Passwords must be a particular length, must not
be "too simple", and cannot be similar to existing passwords. Consider a
case where a user accidentally enters a password with caps lock turned
on. There will be no way to solve this without choosing a different
password altogether. Also because of this requirement, one cannot change
a hint for an existing password.
Ubuntu aims to be an easy to use operating system at home - one that
doesn't demand too much from the user. So, this feature should probably
be turned off in our case.
