Comment (by darkfate):

 That's what my patch does. Once you click the confirmation link, it shows
 you your new password in the browser. I also agree with masquerade when he
 says that sending emails with a plain text password is risky. The whole
 point of setting your own password is so that you don't forget it. You
 shouldn't need to keep an email reminder. With the patch I made, it's a
 lot easier to make a new password if you need to.
