If you create a patron and don't set a password koha will fill the password
field. But there's no hint on creation that this will happen, nor indication
what password you will get.

There should be a message (maybe via HTML 'label' or 'title') stating you will
get a default password anyway and also saying which one will be. Maybe
something like: "If you don't supply a password, system will fill with
<this_default_password>"

Also this information should be visibly highlighted, and a status flag should
be set to indicate that and warn the patron to change it as soon as possible.

Default password should be a system preference and it should be possible to set
different ones for different libraries.

Summary:

- hint with a visible message about the automatic password filling
- show default password in page (creation and modification), it will be know
for everbody anyway
- allow for different default passwords per library in system preferences
