[midPoint] Possibility to check Password validity?

[Radovan Semancik]

Hi Alexander,

No. Currently there is no practical way how to do it using a web 
service. Of course you can just save the user and check the error. If 
user's password policy check fails then he whole operation is cancelled 
and nothing should be changed. However I understand that this is not an 
ideal way to do validation.

I like the suggestion behind your question. It would be a good idea to 
add special method for this. However I'm afraid we cannot do this for 
3.0 release as the release date is almost upon us. We might be able to 
do this for 3.1 under some circumstances. But first let me understand a 
bit more about your use case. Is password the only field that you would 
like to validate? Or do you expect that you will need to also validate 
other fields?
