I'll +1 it, in agreement with Patrick's POV.

Maybe add it as a recommendation for creating a strong password (or as an
alternative).
Have a great day.:)

I would support the idea. But the relevant xkcd needs to go in there
too though :)
One could also provide users with a list of password managers they
could use, if that's not beyond the project's scope. When they start
using complex passes, as xkcd says, they'll start forgetting them too.
On Sat,
Well, the idea should be introduced. I understand that password is a
common wording. It should be introduced inside the currently existing
explanation of strong passwords. We should push towards later using
"passphrase" when referring to a "password"

Personally, I would vote to keep "password" and "passphrase" separate.
They are easily confused as is, particularly in creating SSH/GPG keys
and describing them to new users, not to mention, the passwd file itself.
I can't think of any examples where keys are generated and it asked for
a pass
In my opinion, I wouldn't mind this, but I'm not sure it's all a great idea.
(Not trying to burst your bubble, because I'll +1 that if others do)
I think that since Ubuntu still uses "password" rather than "pass phrase", this
may be confusing to new users of Ubuntu, as well as computer systems i
I would like to introduce the word "Pass-phrase" instead of "Password".
As a phrase and using numbers in place of some letters can produce a
much stronger credentials than a single word and less likely to be guessed.
So, as example, the phrase you chose was "Linux is my friend", if you
mix in num
Jeffery,
I'd recommend that you send a description of what you would like to do, for
example, give us the section title, what chapter it will be in, and what it
will be about (in a sentence or two.) that's just my opinion though.
