Bug Description

The password strength assessment is inconsistent between Ubiquity and the Gnome "User Accounts" applet.

For example, I use a pretty short but complicated password:
- Ubiquity evaluates this password as "Good password" or "strong" (don't really remember)
- Gnome "User Accounts" applet evaluates this same password as "weak".

Ubuntu Gnome 13.04 + Gnome 3 PPA.
