Public bug reported:

Per conversation on IRC with ogra.

The phone will reject passwords which match the username.

Fine and dandy, but isn't password security the responsibilty of other
entities and code. Rejecting just this insecure password, hard-coded,
seems a bit odd.

** Affects: android-tools (Ubuntu)
