When editing a user profile, if the password field is left blank and it does not get focus it shouldn't be reported as "weak", since obviously it means I will keep the current password.

Expected behavior: The password strength indicator is activated only when the password field gets focus. This is in line with earlier versions of the module.

Actual behavior: The password strength indicator is always active, meaning that if the field is untouched (i.e., I simply don't want to change password and that field never gets focus) the password is reported as "weak"; this may confuse users.

Thanks :) FWIW though, you really don't have to. You can easily use the patch URL in the Cgit repo UI:
