Password Blacklist System

An error message is returned if a set password matches a blacklisted word. Matching is available on an "exact match" or "contains" basis.

Notes:
Bug #1363 (Unable to commit when more than one fraction is on the same page) was reported by coryneale on 15th May 2006 but was marked as Can Not Replicate following a month without feedback. Two developers were previously unable to reproduce the issue.
Bug #1402 (Anchor are not a valid asset id) was reported by wombat on 1st June 2006 but was marked as Can Not Replicate after two developers were unable to reproduce the problem.
Bug #1415 (Locks not correct on Oracle) was reported by wombat on 8th June 2006 but was marked as Can Not Replicate after a developer was unable to reproduce the problem after fixing bug #1417.
Bug #1416 (Trash lock not visible in the Active lock screen) was reported by wombat on 8th June 2006 but was marked as not being a bug. As the trash is locked and unlocked for each asset purged, the reported behaviour is possible and does not in itself represent the presence of a bug.
Bug #1427 (Links in News Item not working correctly) was reported by mitch but was marked as not being a bug because the behaviour reported is likely caused by the asset being linked to not existing in the system.
