Eric,
Hi. I think what would be best is to just require the email and *not* the password. What I would like to do is auto-generate a password and email that along with the order information in case the customer wants to login later and check their status.
Of course, I'll have to make sure to bypass the flow when a new order is created and not "re" generate a new password for someone who has ordered before.
What are your thoughts? I'm getting major push back from staff about forcing the password.
