"There are many installations and context where a strong password is not needed, nor desired by design. E.g. cloud images have passwordless accounts & passwordless root. Because access to those machines is locked down via public-key ssh connections. There is no way to know what authentication context will be used and what is the full security model. One password will not protect you."

I know. That is why I defined the conditions where the bug appear to be obvious to me. Not a cloud image, not the server installer, not the alternate cd installer, the GUI installer from the 32-bit Ubuntu Live CD installing on a qemu-kvm VM.
