I think that's REALLY confusing.  It seems to me that asking for a
password which might be used either to log into an existing account or
to set the password for an account that's about to be created is not
very user-friendly at all.  And we get questions about it here
regularly.  Why not:

If (account exists)
  prompt user to log into account
else
  tell user account will be created, ask for account pw
prompt user for db superuser pw
