Description:
Please add an option to create an additional check by writing a function in SQL which can be called from the validate_password plugin

How to repeat:
See description

Suggested fix:
CREATE FUNCTION custom_password_check...
SET GLOBAL validate_password_function='foobar.custom_password_check';
...

This would make it easier to customize without the need to write it in C/C++
