When a user resets their password using the reset password wizard, it generates a very random and long password. Something like;
xI0jlf86X;o
 This can be very confusing for users, ecspecially the ones that recieve the email reset on their smart phone and are typing the new password in manually on their desktop. I also have a page that is dedicated for use with smartphones and I can see this being an issue. Is there anyway to change the format to something that is easier. Such as all lowercase alphanumeric characters? It can be easy to confuse 0 and O but a lowercase o can be distinguished from a 0 (zero) much easier than an upper case o.
My password requirments are set as;
enablePasswordRetrieval="false" enablePasswordReset="true" requiresQuestionAndAnswer="false" requiresUniqueEmail="false" passwordFormat="Hashed" ...
