Title:
  Bad tab order for Change Password in user accounts panel

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  Incomplete
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The user accounts panel has a password changing dialog. Pressing Tab
  from the New password field, after typing in that field, brings focus
  to a button for generating a random password. Users will generally
  expect the Confirm password field to be focused instead.

  In addition, the dropdown is not particularly understandable when
  accessed through the keyboard; the only thing that really says what it
  does is a tooltip. A user could easily choose one of the options out
  of confusion, unexpectedly changing the new password he previously
  entered.
