Bug is still there, see https://forums.mysql.com/read.php?10,669269,669344, software should disallow pswd chars like ';'. Failing that, docs need to warn against their use in pswds.

Posted by developer: Fixed as of the upcoming MySQL Installer 1.6.6 release, and here's the proposed changelog entry from the documentation team: Semicolons are now supported as part of a root password. All characters that MySQL Server supports by default are also supported by MySQL Installer. Thank you for the bug report.
