> But your password isn't "nothing"; it is something [....]

Your post didn't whiz by me; I just think it's unintuitive that nothing be something.

On the other hand, though, "nothing," in this instance really means "blank," so having to enter something to indicate "blank" is a bit less unintuitive. tongue

But this particular field doesn't "ask" to be recognized...merely to have something entered in it if there's anything to be entered in it.
