--- Comment #90 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
If I understand correctly the problematic line is:

 $minPasswordLength = 8 if not $minPasswordLength or $minPasswordLength < 8;

So if we kept the patch as attached, I think we will break people's workflows.
If you have set to a lower password value now, Koha will suddenly force you to
use a longer password. Another use case I could see is 4 digit PINs for self
checks. I know some older self checks don't support alphanumeric, not sure
about length.

I feel like we should continue the discussion on a hardcoded value on bug 18308
and keep this one to just change the default value we ship Koha with. It will
be a step forward that we can get through quickly.
