I absolutely agree with the passwords needing to be explicit that once you forget your password, sorry no dice. There have been some new people that found this out the hard way unfortunately.
Honestly, I think the 12 words recovery is the best option for Steem that other coins and HD wallets are using. That way, if all else fails, they for sure have a backup of their password hash.
Yeah I was really trying to stress the importance of password safety with this post https://steemit.com/steem/@will-zewe/if-you-re-new-to-the-crypto-world-and-now-find-yourself-in-possession-of-a-few-steem-steem-dollars-take-a-watch-on-what-you-can figured the newbies could use all the help and advice they could get.
use service such as lastpass so this problem could be resolved,it's like your storing your password in secure way and autofill any form
