Expected behaviour

We should give our users more information about why the passphrase they entered is invalid.
Namely:

  • Passphrase should have twelve words, entered passphrase has X
  • Word "XXXX" is not on the passphrase Word List. Most similar word on the list is "XXXY"
  • Passphrase is not valid

Actual behaviour

When users try to log in with an invalid passphrase the only error message they can get is "invalid"
