Comment(by DD32):

 > 1. Introduces inconsistency

 Point taken, Lets change the installer's notice to "Take note of this,
 You'll need it to login in the next step, After which you may change this
 password to something easier to remember if you choose"

 I'd also be for the installer's page with the password with an auto-login
 button myself... :)

 > 2. Gives bad advice (I think)
 Yes, Random passwords are good. But who really leaves them as random?
 Theres nothing stoping them from leaving it as random, its a simple click.
 The majority of users will want to change their passwords for future
 logging in.
