Min Password Length vs Block Common Passwords

After pondering this a bit longer, it does bring up some relevant issues.

  • What about other languages? Surely “monkey1234” or even “password” itself is not a common password in languages other than English?

  • What about languages with ideograms, where one character is an entire word. Where :white_check_mark: :horse: :battery: :paperclip: is roughly equivalent to “correct horse battery staple” in English.

So perhaps the case here is stronger than I thought for making this file dynamic so it can be loaded per language at a minimum @neil? That also opens the door to “we want to make 6 chars the minimum password, even if we know the risks are dire?”
