             Summary: UserAdmin 'create user' REST API not suited for password 
restrictions
                 Key: AMDATUAUTH-137
                 URL: http://jira.amdatu.org/jira/browse/AMDATUAUTH-137
             Project: Amdatu Auth
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Authorization & authentication
    Affects Versions: 0.2.1
            Reporter: Ivo Ladage - van Doorn
            Assignee: Ivo Ladage - van Doorn
             Fix For: 0.2.2


In the UserAdmin REST API you can create a new user by a PUT to 
rest/users/[name] which does not take any input. Passing the password is not 
possible, and so a new user is always created without a password. The password 
is updated in a separate POST to /rest/users/[name]/credentials/password, but 
when that password does not meet the password policy a user is created without 
a password, violating that very same policy.
In the current UI you end up with the situation that a new user is created but 
setting the password is rejected. When you change the password and try again, 
the system responds with an error that the user already exists.
So this API should be refactored a but to support password restrictions.
