Is there a confirmation from the change password node?
Also, are there any values but "0" that will work for this? Blank shouldn't work, since the password fields get submitted as blank if you change anything but your password on your profile.

Co-Rion,
What happens to a user's real name and email address when they disable their account? I assume this is in response to the break in, in which users raised larger concerns about their information after they abandoned the site than just accessing their account.

Is this just a stop-gap to a better solution in the future? It seems to me that the long term the goal should be to create a "Disable" button that erases that users real name, email address, and password. And maybe that users home node for good measure?

Still wondering where the button is. | [reply] |

I give you a link to your personal Perlmonks Account Disable Page. You get to choose
there what information remains and what information gets deleted. You also get to enter the text that will be displayed during your indeterminate leave of absence.
The button is at the bottom of the page, labeled "Stumbit", as is a Monastery tradition.
As a precautionary measure, to permanently disable your account, we require you to enter a "security code" into the field labeled "password". The current security code is 0.
