When creating the first initial account for the drupal system, I've noticed in the past I've had problems recognizing the password that it gives you. I've also noticed others having this same problem when they install Drupal for the first time.

I say the simple solution is to have the password displayed in a bordered box with a LOT of padding and the font set to a really large size: 2em?

resizing the font will not help.

The best option, IMO, is to log in the user automatically and open the user/edit screen, and to use drupal_set_message to:
** provide the user his *temporary* password,
** tell the user that this UID 1 account is special
** tell the use to change his details there.
