Bug Description
1. Go to <https:/
2. Go to <https:/
3. Tab to the "Choose password" field.
4. Type "abc1234".
What happens:
3. The field has a caption below it, "Password must be at least 8 characters long, and must contain at least one number and an upper case letter."
4. "Strength: good" appears next to the field, despite it being only 7 characters and containing no upper-case letters!
What should happen: some combination of
3. more flexible requirements for passwords (bug 821727), and
4. the strength meter showing up only for passwords that meet the basic requirements.

This is fixed now: the strength meter only shows if password meets the minimum length req (8 characters, see bug 821727) and the case/number requirements have been removed.
