Bug Description

Stable OpenERP version 6.0.2,
Windows XP

* Administration > Users > Users, create a new user

Obtained result(s) :
                             - No password required if we provide a login
                             - Password cleared when saving the user
                             - Inconsistent "Change Password" label while encoding the user for the first time !

Expected result :
                             - A password must be required if a login is defined
                             - Password must appear but encrypted (otherwise it is disturbing for the user who does not know if he enters it well)
                             - The label must be "Set password" instead of "Change Password"

Hello Harmel Delphine,

We had the same behavior as expected but we had a security concerns as reported here https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-server/+bug/632927 on web client. So to over come this we do always clear the change password field.
Secondly: yes the label needs to be improved to "set" instead of "change" the user can either set it for the first time while creating a user or can set the new password for existing user.

So we would like to just implement the usability issue reported.

Correct me if I am missing something !

Thanks,
