@Matt, this is already useful and being used in production at a number of sites (>5).

Those are nice features to add, add Jira tickets

It may have conflicts so you'll need to resolve them. This works in Sakai 2.8.

Alternatively you can merge in r100784 into your environment, check the commits tab as that has been applied to 2.8.

How to apply this patch?
I'm using sakai 2.8.1

I think this patch needs two features to make it useful in a real case. Right now this seems like it would just be useful for testing.

  • An option to email users with this password notifying them that an account was created on their behalf. (Probably insecure, but someone would have to email them otherwise, make it a checkbox on this page)

  • If the password field is left empty, use the account validation logic in reset password to email them a link where users can set their password (https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/RES-5)
