+ 1.2 Click "Unlock" at the top right, and enter the user's password.
+ 1.3. Click the dots to the right of "Password", to open the dialog where you
can change the password mode.

the dialog.
+ 1.5 Open a terminal, and execute `grep nopasswdlogin /etc/group'. Note that
the current user is present.
2. log out, and confirm password is not needed to login.
3. launch launch "user accounts panel" in unity-control-center again.
4. change the login user's password
Expected behavior
- 1. new user password is set without any warning message.
+ 1. new user password is set without any warning message, and user is removed
from group "nopasswdlogin".
Current behavior
1. system prompt "Authentication is required to change user data", and the
only way out is press cancel.
2. after press cancel, new user password is set, but the user is still in
"nopasswdlogin" group. (checked by `grep nopasswdlogin /etc/group`)
