(In reply to Matt Tyson from comment #9)
May-be it would be sufficient to let bugzilla explicitly mention in its forms
what it considers to be a "special character"?

FWIW: Some time end of last week, I tripped over the same issue as Jörg.
Bugzilla had started to reject my previous password and had urged me to choose
a new one. Initially I also ran into the "§" issue and started trying "special
characters" on my keyboard, until I found one BZ accepted - I now understand
you mean "punct". This could be obvious to English speakers, but in the ages of
utf8 and i18n'ed apps this isn't obvious to non-native Engish speakers,
anymore.

E.g. to me - being German myself - it would be tempting to use umlauts, sharp
"s" or the "EURO"-char as part of "special chars" in passwords.
