pgAdmin v 1.16.1

Windows 7 x64

PostgreSQL v9.4.2

CentOS 6.4

pgAdmin by default when editing a user's account settings seems to set
Account Validity to '1969-12-31 00:00:00+01' if the role is defined as valid
until infinity.

This results in the user not being able to login, and only receiving a
password authentication failed error message (Account Expired would be more
helpful, but that's for Postgres ;)).

An example would be adding a user to a group role via the Role membership
tab, and never actually opening the Definition tab.

You'd be blissfully unaware that Password validity had been changed.

Best regards,

Brett
