 When one wants to change their WordPress.org password, some people make
 their way to their support profile, and if they make it that far, this is
 what they see:

 It's not clear that clicking 'Generate Password' is how you set a custom
 password

 Upon clicking Generate Password, you see this:

 Not the greatest, but it's obvious (to me) that you can change the
 password.

 However, once you change the password to a "bad" password, you see this:

 attachment/ticket/5755/three.png?w=400)]]

 That confirm box is basically "I confirm I want to use a weak password"
 and should say that, or a variant of it.

 I suspect this is mostly core bbPress behaviours, but creating this here
 as we probably want a better UX on WordPress.org regardless.
