Yes, in the case you want that the user will be using both a login name and
password, if you only want a password, you have to see that the password is
unique, otherwise the users can be mixed up (while using login+pass the
likelihood is a lot less that you have two persons with the same login and
password, of course you should see to have only one user for each
username/login you use).
