In apps built on our Q Platform, the default "set password" screen actually encourages users to select a PASSPHRASE and displays several suggestions. When the app is online, the suggestions consist of three consecutive words in Yahoo News. If the app is offline, they are generated from a dictionary in the form MY NOUN VERB HIS NOUN or similar.

This should hopefully help more people choose strong passphrases.
