 Replying to [comment:15 DJPaul]:

 complexity, they sound kinda pointless.

 You really think so? AFAIK, WP also doesn't enforce password complexity.
 The idea behind the client-side check is that it prods the user
 psychologically into using better passwords. I don't have any data to back
 it up, but I'd assume that this has a measurable effect on behavior.
