Description of the need
I would like a simple way to enforce more secure passwords in Backdrop core. Since a longer password is a stronger password, I would like a minimum length setting for passwords.
Proposed solution
An admin sets a minimum length for passwords
When a password is created that does not meet that minimum, a validation error is thrown asking for a longer one.
Alternatives that have been considered
This a follow up to https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues/4265, where at some point a minimum password length setting was added as a factor in password strength. Both @stpaultim and I recognized it as its own setting, and were surprised when setting a minimum password length still allowed passwords to be created that did not meet the minimum.
Through discussion we realized that the setting we saw -- and that I loved! -- was not intended to be used as a control on allowed password length.
I'm creating this new issue because I still want a password minimum length
feature for Backdrop core.

Thanks for your response. The site works when I comment out the trusted settings code, as this is the original code in settings.php. I did a code change by simply putting settings all in the same...

If you comment out the trusted host settings code and access the site, what happens?
