After installing dokemon and navigating to http://localhost:9090 I was greeted with a screen that prompted me to create a user (web/src/app/auth/setup.tsx).

I use a password manager, and I don't like to remember passwords. The advantage of using a password manager is that I can generate really long passwords. The problem here is that I cannot use a long password such as this one: eTfDc0BHuD4K5JIbeRvAfB0Xykq2XMtk34ORygYybsA2yaKkuHdgcJznSiSNjTZkyKZXaUw8UKjvKOnN

The website just refreshed and it didn't seem to create the user. After creating a user with a much shorter password (10 chars), I tried changing the password, but I got the following error:

After trying to see, if the limit is configured somewhere, I came upon this snippet:
github.com/productiveops/dokemon@e800d3e62b/pkg/server/handler/request_user.go (L11)

This does not seem to be by design, so that's why I'm opening this issue.
