One option is to create a function which accepts password (as user types it), performs various validations (its length, whether it contains letters and digits only, whatever you want) and returns
- Boolean: true (password is OK) or false (password isn't OK)
- number: 1 (OK), 0 (wrong)
- string, which contains error message ("password should be 8 characters long, yours is 3" and similar)
Call that function from WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM triggers on "new password" items (as you have to re-type it; check whether retyped password matches previously entered value - add that into function as well, so it'll actually accept two parameters) and either allow saving, or RAISE FORM_TRIGGER_FAILURE with appropriate message.
