I was thinking about that a little bit. I mean password managers let you set
length and character sets, so it does make sense for it to be a bit
configurable. 

The dictionaries/common passwords would need to be configurable too. 

I think storing old password hashes and not matching username/password should
just be baked in.

That's unfortunate although that's a good point. Personally, I'd like strong
defaults, and then people who choose weaker policies would have to accept the
risk that brings.
