[UX] Password field shouldn't show error message immediately (on focus).

[colllin]

When a user tabs into the password field, an error message is immediately displayed. "Password cannot be blank." From watching video recordings, this is tripping users up. They shouldn't be told about an error unless they tell you they think it's done, by clicking the submit button.

As far as I can tell it's the password strength meter that shows that message, so it makes sense it should show while typing; but I agree it should wait to trigger until at least one keypress, not show on focus as it does now.

That would be an improvement and would probably make this go away for us, since I don't believe we currently have any password requirements.
