It seems you can login with empty password in the login screen. Not sure why this didn't work for me when I was testing it last time. But the rest of the issue still stands. It is confusing that you have to type a password if the account should not have a password. Ideally, user should just be able to click on their username in the list of usernames on the login screen.

It seems also that the option to configure user to not have a password is missing. Moreover, in the login screen, "login" button is disabled if the password input box is empty, so even if I force set an empty password, it cannot be used.
