Makes sense and I think that it does. Which actually brings me to a new issue is that I'll need details at some point so that we can hook this thing into SMTP. I had to add a new gpg key.  I've not been to a gpg key signing with this one so we'll have to validate it somehow or just hope that I haven't been compromised. Heh.

Does the software allow "forgot my password" links that send an email?
If so then here is a workflow that I have used:

- Create the account with some password generated by random.org<http://random.org> and a
  valid email address for the user.
- Go to the login page and click "Forgot my password". If the software
  is reasonable that will send an email to the user with a
  time-expired link so they can log in and change their password
  manually.

If there is no such "forgot my password" functionality then that is a
bad thing and I do not have a clear answer.
