removal of white spaces in password

[John Morrison]

Even google ignores white spaces in the middle of the password too, in some special onetime password setup for allowing certain devices to access google.

We are setting up a separate IDP service for generating passwords for the for first time, using a one-time code as the  password, which is presented with white spaces in between the letters for easy presentation for users to type in.

This allows them access to the system to create their own password base on certain criteria.
