Description (last modified by dd32)

When one wants to change their WordPress.org password, some people make their way to their support profile, and if they make it that far, this is what they see:

https://i0.wp.com/meta.trac.wordpress.org/raw-attachment/ticket/5755/one.png

It's not clear that clicking 'Generate Password' is how you set a custom password

Upon clicking Generate Password, you see this:

Not the greatest, but it's obvious (to me) that you can change the password.

However, once you change the password to a "bad" password, you see this:

https://i0.wp.com/meta.trac.wordpress.org/raw-attachment/ticket/5755/three.png

That confirm box is basically "I confirm I want to use a weak password" and should say that, or a variant of it.

I suspect this is mostly core bbPress behaviours, but creating this here as we probably want a better UX on WordPress.org regardless.
