[jeffrey Flaker <jflaker@xxxxxxxxx>]

I would like to introduce the word "Pass-phrase" instead of "Password". 
As a phrase and using numbers in place of some letters can produce a
much stronger credentials than a single word and less likely to be guessed.

So, as example, the phrase you chose was "Linux is my friend", if you
mix in numbers to replace some letters becomes "L1nux 15 my fr13nd"

Passwords were used when systems had limited your input to just a few
characters.  In the modern age, the passphrase is much more secure.

Just my thought.

Thanks
