 Currently, `password-strength-meter.js` uses this pattern to pass the wp
 object as argument:

 {{{
 window.wp = window.wp || {};

 var passwordStrength;
 (function($){
         wp.passwordStrength = {
 ...

 })(jQuery);
 }}}

 so `wp` inside the IIFE is, technically, undefined, even if WordPress
 considers `wp` a global object. Also the first line is pointless if then
 `window.wp` is not passed as argument.
