Indeed :D,
Seems to be an issue when I add an ampersand to the password!
That doesn't surprise me a bit. I don't think I've run into any
password system that will accept that character, though I guess there
must be some since you're using it.
Our password system takes that character. Anything you can fit into a
UTF-8 code point, we'll take. Actually, we don't even care about the
encoding. We'll take up to 4096 characters of whatever you want to send
to us and use it. None of this "8 character maximum" bullshit.
Why would you think that "&" would be some kind of verboten character
for a password?
Because of its uses in windows as a special character (triggering the
underline), and in browsers for marking request parameters. I would be
glad to be wrong, though...
