I assume "Location" will tie in in some way with the improved
Location/Time Zone stuff?

An alternate UI possibility would be to autogenerate a few passwords of
different strength levels and put them directly in the actions list:
Choose a password now
Choose a password at next login
Use this random password: zintelforb
Use this random password: fas42Br0x
Use this random password: y8Tx$mrA
Allow login without a password
I don't think "Disable this account" belongs in the password dialog,
even though that's how it's implemented underneath.

Hm... how could that work though? Without knowing at least one "secret"
about the user besides their password, how can you autogenerate a hint
that will make sense to them (when they've forgotten their password),
but not make just as much sense to anyone else?
"Sites where people use randomly-generated passwords" and "sites that
allow password hints" are probably mostly orthogonal anyway.
