First, to me, this is not obviously a 'very small feature'.

Second, is there any reason it has to be in core? Ideally it could be
implemented in 3rd party library. At that point it would be useful to
you, and we could assess whether it is general enough to be in core.

If it can't be implemented as a 3rd party solution, then it requires
some invasive change to Django itself, which means it is very definitely
not a small feature, and would require much more discussion about how it
would be configured etc. It is much less likely to be accepted if it is
being forced on everyone, or if it requires some new setting to control it.

Third, the need for things like checking password strength means there
probably isn't going to a one-size-fits-all solution. I think this
should be a 3rd party library.
