Hi, thanks. Although I agree I could change the password to make it 
works for now, there's no point in having a minimum length set to an 
arbitrary 8 characters. I think you agree that I as a user should have 
known this in advance. Ultimately, security is up to the user. Thanks 
for looking at this.
