#204 closed defect (fixed)

Inconsistent treatment of blank passwords for superusers

Description

django-admin.py allows one to create a superuser with a blank password, but that password can't then be changed (eg to something non-blank) using the admin interface, because /admin/password_change/ demands that "Old password" be non-blank.

Suggested action: fix django-admin.py so blank superuser passwords aren't allowed.
