 * I’m using your plugin, but I had to edit it because my client wants to allow “
   Weak” level passwords for subscribers (just not _very_ weak).
 * But, of course, the “Weak” label on the indcator is misleading. Is there a way
   to change the password level indicator names (Weak, Medium, Strong)? I’d like
   to change “Weak” to “OK”.
 * Thanks!

 * Out of the box Force Strong Passwords only enforces strong passwords for _Author_,
   _Editor_ and _Administrator_ accounts. Unless you’ve given the _Subscriber_ role
   the capability to `publish_posts`, `upload_files` or `edit_published_posts`, 
   they shouldn’t run into any problems when trying to set a Medium or Weak password.
 * As far as changing the password level indicator names go, Force Strong Passwords
   doesn’t do that. Sorry!

 * Thanks. I still needed to use your plugin (modified) because we don’t want Subscribers
   to be able use a “Very Weak” password.
 * Though I can’t change the word “Weak”, I used CSS to change the strength indicator
   color to green for Weak and Medium, so at least it looks like it’s ok.
 * Thanks for the plugin!
