Description

While using ACB package it is not possible to use national symbols in crypto password. I was trying to set password which contains £ symbol with no luck (GUI and shell)

It is perhaps noteworthy that US NIST's new password recommendations explicitly state that unicode characters should be allowed:

see 5.1.1.2.

This should just be a matter of adding 'encryption_password' to the $cdata_fields array in etc/inc/xmlparse.inc.
