It seems that resolving bug 19908 will probably fix the auto-generating
username and password issue.  They were generated when a new record was saved. 
Mandatory password prevented the save process.  I believe this is why the
username and password were never generated.  Using a quick add without the
password fields does allow save, and on reviewing the record, the username and
password have been inserted.
