Description

Foreman has a documented default root password configured of "123123", but while this is configurable, it would be improved by making this more obvious or configurable at installation time. Perhaps an installer option or a "first boot" type setup for Foreman.

We could remove the default password entirely, and require via model validation that the user provides one when creating a host (if not supplied via settings or a host group). We then suggest they might want to set this under settings or the host group.
