Bug Description

The settings page contains a Password field that is blank.

Entering a new password into this field changes the password.

If no password is entered, the password should be unchanged.

However, not entering a password in this field and then submitting the form sets the password to some unknown value and locks the user out of the system.

Examining the HTML, the offending line is:

<h2>Password</h2><input type="password" dir="" name="password" ">

it's actually the problem of for processor, after a recent aiki update, form processor doesn't save the previous results in the same way it used to, so had to update the password, email and static value form processors in order to make sure it can keep the older information on update
