[Bug 1766041] [NEW] Password policy setting for only upper and lowercase letters doesn't require uppercase
Public bug reported:
Reported at https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=8232
When the password policy is set to just upper and lowercase characters
and a minimum of 8 letters, the following password is accepted even
though it doesn't contain an uppercase letter:
maggie12
It seems that uppercase letters are ignored in all scenarios for the
password policy and a password is created when they are absent.
