Title:
  Change Password in User Accounts panel focuses "New password" field,
  skipping "Current password"

Status in GNOME Control Center:
  Fix Released
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed
Status in “gnome-control-center” source package in Precise:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  In the User Accounts panel, find the option to change a user's
  password. A dialog appears asking for the current password, the new
  password, and a hint. The New password field is focused by default,
  even though this field is below the Current password field. This can
  communicate to the end user that the Current password is not
  necessary, but the password cannot be changed until the current
  password field is filled in.
