RIM has long allowed enterprises to set a list of disallowed passwords or dictionary passwords for BlackBerrys through BES. Now it looks like RIM is extending this to BlackBerry 10 for everyone. RapidBerry spotted a forbidden password list in the BlackBerry 10 OS innards that is supposed to mimic and stay in sync with the BlackBerry ID settings. This means RIM can probably update this list at any time. I did not find the existence of the list as interesting as the actual passwords on the list. Let us know if you are guilty of using any of these!
