79805 - [RFE] Allow Personal Security Passwords > 30 characters

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Security: UI, enhancement, P2)

Description

[kevin arnold]

Using Mozilla 0.9 the maximum password length appeared to be 30 characters.  If
that's true, I'd like to see the password length be unlimited to allow for pass
phrases rather than just passwords.
