Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |INTENTIONAL CC| |n...@kde.org Status|REPORTED |RESOLVED --- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> --- My understanding of the reason for this feature on smartphones is because typing a long password is so annoying that people set short passwords, defeating the security of passwords. But on a desktop system, typing a long password, or even a medium length password presents no problems because the presence of a physical keyboard makes the task easy. In both of your examples, if security is not much of a consideration, then the account's password itself should simply be short. And if security is a consideration, it should be long. Additionally, in the case of a shared computer in a non-secure environment, typically the machine has one account with no password, or else multiple accounts with simple passwords. So I don't think we will be considering this, sorry! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
