that's unforgiveable.Unless there's some kind of hyper-audit requirements, but even then I can;t see why it'd need to be like that.
Sort of reminds me of 1980s software.
We had some piece of crap that you'd fill in a huge form on, maybe 30 fields. If you got anything wrong, maybe a number where it wanted a letter, etc, it'd pop up an error message then return you to the now EMPTY form.

I got one letter wrong in the original post - "does not" should have been "does now"as in "does now contain a facility for users to change their own passwords."
