Bug Description
1. Try to change your password to "ambivalent green arguments".
What happens: Ubuntu One complains that "Password must have characters from at least two of the sets of uppercase characters, punctuation and numbers."
What should happen: The requirement does not exist. It is overcomplicated and unhelpful, leading you to have a password you write down somewhere rather than a passphrase you remember.

The requirement is quite real. It's only a requirement for Canonical employees at this time.
