That could certainly be done, although I think I would find that
seriously annoying :-)
It could just tell you the age of the password, though, which wouldn't

Changing a password is a bit more complicated, though, since an
application like WebPositive cannot even know how to do that, as each
website has its own mechanism for things like that.
