Hi,

I find that Admin GUI and (Admin CLI, REST) behave differently for
admin user without password.

Scenario 1:
There is only one admin user with name "admin" without password.
Admin GUI, CLI and REST do not prompt for the password.

Scenario 2:
There is only one admin user with name "anonymous" without password.
Admin GUI does not prompt for the password.
CLI and REST "do prompt" for the (empty) password.

So, Admin GUI and (Admin CLI, REST) do behave differently.
I think they should be consistent.
