Title:
Password policy should be applied upon upgrade
Status in Mahara:
Confirmed
Status in Mahara 18.04 series:

In Progress
Bug description:
In bug #845263 we implemented the password policy. When you upgrade,
and you go to Admin -> Configure site -> Site options -> Security
settings, it shows you the password policy, but existing accounts are
not required to use it unless they change their password.
Only when you change the length of the password or the make-up are
existing accounts required to reset their password.
It would be cleaner if upon upgrade all user accounts are required to
adhere to the password policy as listed in the security settings.
This should be a change similar to the one in /admin/site/options.php
lines 901-911
Additionally, everyone - including the current site admin, but
excluding the root user - are required to adhere.
