Bug Description
Steps to reproduce issue:
This is not inital account. It's an additional account (2nd user in system) which i tried to add after installation.
1. Create new Administrator user account.
2. Do not create the password for this account just activate account - give to this account possibility to log in without password.
3. Log out from current user and log in to new user account.
4. Run terminal and add/set password for this account via passwd:
passwd
i created a simple password like qwerty
5. log out and try to log in again.
In my case, i still could log in to this account without password prompt - instead of password prompt i have only Log in button - which i think this shouldn't be an option and user should be asked already for password. What is also strange, when i tried to change the password via System Settings->User accounts i was able to do it but still i could log in to system without password prompt.
Other thing to point out is why during installation for initial account i can setup as my password "qwertyu" but then when i'm trying to create new user this password would be to weak but i don't have this problem when i'm adding password via passwd terminal command? I think i should be:
a) no weak passwrod even during initial setup;
b) when creating weak password customer is warn but able to continue anyway.
