You have been subscribed to a public bug: I set my password to a passentence 39 characters long through the terminal. The GUI tool would not let me set it this long, nor would and other of the GUI tools let me authenticate with the new passentence, most notably SPM and the locked screen. I suggest that the GUI tools should be able to handle arbitrary length passwords like the terminal does.
