This is not actually a bug, as the account is locked and can be unlocked in the "Account Info" tab. Perhaps add a tooltip explaining where to unlock in future versions?
Hi Nils, well, some info about locked account will be great but I'm not for this solution because new account without password isn't really locked, it's just an account without password. In system there could be truly locked users with password set. Or am I wrong and "passwd" does unlock after setting of a user's password? I know that s-c-u is not copy-paste gui for passwd but are you sure that some "information" in tab is enough?)
