Comment:

 Doing some branch testing with JavaScript disabled.

 Entering ` space` (please note the leading space) in both the password and
 confirmation fields results in the error message "Error: The passwords do
 not match."

 This is because the password field, `pass1`, is trimmed but the
 confirmation field, `pass2`, is not. If WordPress must preprocess password
 fields, then the confirmation field will need to be preprocessed too.
