I am not saying that forcing a password on users is good--I am undecided...

The problem with rotating passwords is how in hell to manage them. Once 
upon a time, when hardly anyone had a password and those who did had but 
a single password, it was easy. But now there are a lot.

As a practical matter, how do you expect users to know their new 
password if you make them change it every few weeks? Serious question.
