In the standard user folder, the password is stored as an attribute __ 
(that's two underscores) on the user object. Look up the user and set 
that. This has to be done with file-system code.

The existing password-setting things should provide an example. Other 
things set passwords as well: see, for example, the PasswordResetTool in 
the Collective.
