Currently when you want to password-protect a link, you have to think of a password yourself. Which is possibly not secure, or not easy to remember. This is especially useful when password-protection is mandatory cause enforced by the admin.

We should help people by autogenerating a default password whenever you check "Password-protect", until it is changed. It should be passwords which can be easily communicated over other channels, so maybe something made of other words like:

house right carton keyboard

Or something like that – you know what I mean. ;)

What do you think @nextcloud/designers @nextcloud/security?
