So thanks for providing the details now. This bug was not Triaged, it
was merely Confirmed. Sure, you had in mind the details, but nobody else
did. So, what was not mentioned in the report or the comments is:
changing your password does not allow you to authenticate via sudo.

You're really not helping the reporter nor Xubuntu in general by
preventing anybody to mark bugs as Incomplete. How do you know it's a
problem in users-admin? Isn't that a sudo or PAM issue? Is it happening
because the system-tools-backends use usermod to set the password
instead of passwd? Finding the right package is the first step, else
nobody will notice the report. And that's absolutely unrelated to
GNOME/Xfce flamewars.

BTW I'm not triaging bugs ATM, I'm fixing them, which requires
information to write patches. If you realized the debugging needed, I
could fix it *even if* I'm supposedly working in upstream GNOME and
despising Xfce people.
