Bug Description
There is a limitation of "8 to 64 characters", so you can not save the settings, so you can not use the "Ask for this password every time" option
We can handle this by changing the limit from "0 character to 64 letters" from the source code, but I think that it is not the best way ...

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a "regular" (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy. Please feel free to report any other bugs you may find.
