the "Minimum password length" setting properly displays additional help text when a new user registers an account, informing the user of the minimum length. however, no matching help text appears on the user's account edit page.

See the attached patch file to add a password length description in addition to the existing description about entering password twice.

the code in the patch is inconsistent with it's sister code in logintoboggan_form_user_register_form_alter(). these should be handled the same way. in fact, it should probably be abstracted into a helper function.

OK, I'll check out the logintoboggan_form_user_register_form_alter() in the first instance to produce a consistent patch, and then put together a helper function once it's consistent.

Here's a patch abstracting the code to display the message, and then calling that helper function from both form_alter functions.

However, please also see:
#1142808: Minimum Password Length displayed conflicts with core message
