My use case involves users with blank passwords, and I've run into apps where blank usernames are allowed. passport-local treats these as invalid requests.
Regardless whether blank usernames or passwords are a good idea, it seems that it should be up to the verifier or some other system to determine whether this is valid, not passport-local. If a blank string is provided, it shouldn't be treated as a missing field.
