The Utf 8 Password Validator may be used to ensure that passwords are only allowed to contain valid UTF-8 characters. It may optionally limit characters to only those in the ASCII character set, and may also optionally restrict passwords so that they may only include characters from a specified set of character classes.
The Utf 8 Password Validator component inherits from the Password Validator
